On Foxtel they are live - today's medals at 16:55

I don't know about Channel 10 / One HD but if you check the Foxtel On-line guide (search for cycling - next 14 days) then you'll see th etimes they are broadcasting & I guess that 10 will show them if there's an Aussie in the race!

From that document, "It is not to provide an extended body position outside the letter or spirit of the UCI regulations. "

The number of swear words and insults about the UCI that come into my head, when I read that. The concept of something controvening the 'spirit' of the law is utterly ridiculous.

he was just waving at the commissaires I reckon :wink: I also reckon he was badly done by as he didn't really move down that much on the Malaysian dude, the South African just had crap bike handling !!

and go Megan Dunn - two Golds and did you see what she said after she won the points race ... she was happy indeed! and how good is Cameron Meyer ...

The the frig were the Kiwi's doing? Even though they did a good time.

I don't think that catching the Kiwi's prevented them getting the world record, didn't cost them 2.5 seconds

Hey, if the UCI allows this Aussie team to time trial with moustaches on their noses, how come the same UCI rules didn't allow Lindsay and team complete in the Vintage Team Time Trial a couple of months back with nicer looking moustaches?

Yeah. Good point. Maybe it was because our moustaches were UNDER our noses instead of above them, and that somehow breached the spirit of the "handlebar moustache" restrictions.

The scratch race was awesome to watch, he is just a different level...Meyer is my new hero. Finally a name for my track bike after 2 years. It has to start with C and it has to be an Australian rider. Cameron it is!!

And he did a great job of ensuring Freiberg got the silver. I loved that bit especially.

You'll just have to make sure you don't get Cameron and Camilla mixed up :)
