    My daughters just told me, we were out at park run. That Australian must feel awful to mess the last dive up so badly! Watching Joe bat then will stick the Olympics on!

    Park Run is too early for me, we’ve just got back from a very hot run! I did feel so bad for the Australian. It it was such a shock.

    Awful mistake by the AUS girl on the last dive. Good consistent scores for GB though.

    This American CANNOT stay on her bike on the women’s time trials (we’re on for a gold btw). Even the mechanic just fell over trying to give her a new bike!

    I was RD at Woodhouse Moor in Leeds this morning, hence the question. Didn't think it was likely you'd have been at our run, but wanted to check.

    Silver for Henderson! No slips, great ride. Brown who got gold was just phenomenal.

    Gutted for Tarling. Two seconds away from the podium after losing around 30 seconds due to a front puncture.

    Switched on for end of bike trial , unlucky Tarling , but the coverage is unwatchable cutting to random shots of building rooftops as the race was in the critical final stage

    I was watching that on Eurosport. How gutting that you train for four years to win gold and the reason you don't win it is something out of your control.
