Exactly plus I don't think a wee bit of tape was the reason the danish team caught up the gb boy which led to the crash 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sherrif John Bunnell Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 (edited) Maybe the GB cycling team would be more keen on using the leg tape if it was delivered to them in a mysterious brown paper bag?

The Danish rider was being a complete cock after it happened. Rode right into the back of the 3rd British rider, in effect catching him & ending the race; due to not looking in front, seeing his opponent & overtaking. He gets up & throws a complete heads gone tantrum at the Brit lying on the floor, like it's the guys fault he's steamed right into the back of him. Storms off the Velodrome like a bull in a China shop, still seething in the pit. The result being the Danes face disqualification by deliberately causing a crash. I hope they do get binned, purely down to that dicks antics. He's lucky he didn't get his puss punched for the way he was shouting at the guy on the ground. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even 3rd place was only .02 seconds off it.

We mastered the art of taking every advantage possible when Dave Brailsford was all about the marginal gains stuff. Don't think we can be upset if another team has figured out something we haven't. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im no cycling expert but I reckon joining your legs with tape would be a bit of a disadvantage. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Danes are claiming the pistol went off signalling they had caught him before the crash. Ultimately neither team finished the race so they have to decide whether the catch was good or the Danes caused the crash. The UCI tweeted hours ago that the Danes were through. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No idea of the rules. what defines catching him? Is it passing his back wheel or what? Is riding straight into the back of his back wheel catching him? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
