Actually if you bothered reading my predictions, you can see that I have predicted, 3 golds, 2 silvers in 6 mens events. Hardly "gold, gold, and gold"
And you can nowhere in the latest succession of posts see anything that resmebles me and SN believing that, so I don't know why you've said that to be honest...
We have merely talked about the team sprint team, what Bos thinks we will do and I have made my predictions, which are actually very realistic if you think about it...

Actually the events I care about are mostly on tuesday, so I won't get to watch much of it.

Track cycling is go!
Poland crashed in their team sprint  When they crossed the line to start the final lap, their final guy was on the outside of the 2nd guy, so when the 2nd guy pulled up having done his lap - Crash!
Malaysia just set a national record to go fastest time with 5 teams gone. (USA in 2nd)

Big problem for British cycling is they've got to deliver up to their expectations. If they don't, there's going to be big cuts in an already underfunded sport 
That's a lot of pressure to put on the riders

Britain are on track next, now we will see if Kenny works well with Hoy and Staff or if we need to get Edgar back in.

WORLD RECORD!!
Jason Kenny
Staff's leadout was awesome, quickest opening lap by any rider, ever. Kenny was insane and Hoy was awesome, nothing else to say. It was a great round
Inside world record pace through all 3 laps
EDIT: The French are just about to start, so we can see how they're feeling.

Jamie Staff also set the fastest ever opening leg! Lets see if France can react.

And possibly one of the best bits about Britain going so good is that BBC are showing it all! Even on BBC One!

Its interesting how different the Team Sprint is compared to the Worlds. The 8 fastest qualifiers now go to Round 2, in 4 head to head matches. The two fastest winners of these matches go on to the Gold/Silver medal, while the other two winners go the Bronze medal match.
