A Weekend of Big Races

Events are coming thick and fast, and this weekend sees two top level competitions.

The Olympic Road Race is the one hitting all the headlines as Cav goes for gold on the Mall. By the time I get back to you (on Tuesday 1st August) this will be done and we’ll know if Cav has added another massive profile win to his career.

On that note you can see the full line up for the road race here. I have never seen a bunch of athletes look more like a series of Wanted posters.

You might have wondered some things about the GB athletes, like;

What makes Dave Millar so stylish?
And
What makes Bradley Wiggins so good?

Part of what makes him good is his team and they have taken some time out to thank the fans:



Whatever Phil Liggett thinks, mountain biking is an elite sport and this Weekend it’s also it’s finally time for the next round of the Downhill and Cross Country World Cup in Val D’Isere and that will be all live on Red Bull TV as ever.

If that’s all too exhausting and you’re missing the quirkier side of cycling then how about this bike made of cardboard.



See you on Tuesday.
