Appreciate it was probably a joke and all, but you never see anything in lycra shorts as you have padding in the crotch to protect your bits. Any camel toe lookalike is gonna be the chamois in your shorts scrunching up.

I hate myself for noticing, but the same cannot be said for the teeny tiny gymnasts.

yeah, i wear the padded shorts when im on my bike too,,,, can't imagine how much pain I would be in without them.

Tell me about it. Doing an event in the Alpes in a few weeks that'll mean around 7-8 hours in the saddle. Bugger that without some serious padding

It must be so dispiriting being in a bike race against Chris Hoy.

 

[Bruce Wayne]

Hoy did look very good. Didn't see anyone in the 2nd semi that really looks like they could challenge him.

I think Rufus and Esk are snotting this thread really

Liu Xang crashed out of the hurdles.... big shock that.


How many actually fell in that race ffs.

I said the other day in a heat of the womens 400m hurdles I had never seen so many (three) fall. But those that fell on the bends must have impeded runners in neighboring lanes.

If you dye your hair red you don't deserve to win a medal

And if it is red naturally? David Moyes has his future in your hands.

 

[RFUS]

What a strike. Japan 1-0.

 

[Phyllis Stein]
