London 2012: Wiggo Wins the time trial

Terrific spectacle to witness. The streets around Esher were heaving! The weather was a bit grey for the women's race, but the photographic conditions for the men's race were as flawless as Wiggo's riding!

Sloping horizons on every one... Really, Dan, it's just not good enough...and why was that guy hurling abuse at the Danish competitor in picture seven?

The times are very impressive considering how steep some of those hills are. :smile:

Hardcore cycling fan - all the riders got a massive cheer, no abuse or negativity at all.

I realise that - he just looked slightly annoyed... Still doesn't explain the sloping horizons though!!! Interesting that they are all being chased by BMWs...
