Great ride by Wiggins - i'd say expect faster, he's been pushing 4.13 in training

So basically anyone who's actually any good on the road were eliminated.
That says something about specialization

43.699 is the time Britain need to beat to qualify in the top 2. They did a 42.9 earlier.

I like the commentator's impartialness
"now all we need to know is who will join them in the next round, well it can't be anyone other than Great Britain can it"

I feel justified in saying he's not any good on the road when he doesn't do anything and most of all doesn't try to do anything. I would however accept if you mentioned Dyudya, since he at least works very hard for his team's sprinters and is ukrainian national champion.

Mrlol, Its fair to say that we didnt expect to be half a second ahead of France! I honestly though France would be extremely hard to beat
