Re: First UK Gold medal?


Was just flicking through on the BBC multi screen thing and saw the racing, having done a fair few hill climbs myself (my favourite has to be doing the col-de-madilne - took us a day, took the tour de france guys a matter of hours!) I know how hard it can be, and to see the amount of water on the road - A Chinese cyclist literally slide off the road

But not having read the newspaper yet, I think this is our first gold medal so go team GB!

To say the commentators were panicking a bit when she seamed to loose ground on one of the last corners, she did good
