Road World Championship, Copenhagen, 19th-25th September

Australia 4 (2 Golds, 2 Bronze)
GB 3 (2 Silvers, 1 bronze)

It's getting close.

no more medals for English speaking countries. (maybe a bronze but no gold)

There's a chance of HTC having all 4 senior WC jerseys which would be incredible and completely fucked up at the same time

Close? It's not just total numbers we're talking about here.
Broken Britain still needs 2 gold.

Cavendish and Armistead will get those.

Which is it, no more or some more?

i'm hedging my bets.

Clearly. :-)

Cavendish and Armistead will get those.

Cav? Nah, he's rubbish. I mean, what's he won? Pfft.

Not Nicole Cooke?

I don't think the course is selective enough for the likes of Cooke (who's had a lousy season) and Pooley so it makes sense to ride for the best sprinter on the team.

I may revise this opinion after seeing a couple of the road races on Friday and Saturday.

they are going to smash it.

I tempted to put a side bet on te road race winner being Norwegian.

Jacky Durand will win from a breakaway.

Freddy Maertens will pip Cav to the post on pot belge.

EBH will try to go early, Gilbert and Tor will follow. Tor will nick it. Cav will quit in the wake of the powerful attack.

Thats were my mouth is^

My money is on Cav. Odds on the big Norskies up here, are poor.

Freddy Maertens will pip Cav to the post on pot belge.

Do you have to speak your fancy foreign?

Surely "beer gut" is more appropriate for a London forum?

Silly boy.

Pot Belge was a performance enhancing drug used by pro cyclists in the sixties, seventies, eighties and nineties.

It consisted of Space Dust and Coca Cola mixed together into a potent paste, then this was stirred into a hollowed out Cadbury's creme egg. The rider would have one testicle surgically removed and this performance enhancing confection would be slipped into his nad sack in it's place.
If you see a rider fiddling with his bollocks towards the end of a race it is a sign that he is crushing just such an egg, spilling the toxic speed goo into his bloodstream, giving him the strength of nine wolverines on PCP.
THat's why Armstrong has no bollocks. He used two eggs to give him the boost he needed to win all fifteen Toors di France and win two presidential elections.

It's all there, on the internetz.

OPEN YOUR BRAINS!!!!!

too much coffee luci?

....or sat down too quickly. Trapping the 'special' bollock.

What are you talking about? Are these guys even in the race?
