World Track Championships 2007 capsule review

They've got Metal Slug 5 in the hotel. Best World Championships ever, 10/10

Actual review, even though we've only got 15 minutes of internet left, we can´t work this Spanish keyboard, and Blogger has noticed we're in Spain and changed its language accordingly
Amazing. The Palma Arena is actually the best velodrome ever. And Great Britain won seven gold medals, which is five more than anyone else. And Vicky Pendleton is amazing. And we managed to see Adrie Visser getting changed. And lots of other things. We're super impressed with the whole "Britain are the best in the world by so much that it's a bit embarrassing" thing. 10/10

We've got some photos too, but we forgot our USB cable so that's a bit rubbish.

Recent vitriol


Which cyclists have we libelled this month?

These ones haven't aged well


Much like Laurent Brochard

Some old updates that aren't entirely awful


And there'll be even more coming to this spot just as soon as we can be bothered trawling through our somewhat embarrassing archives.

Script extracts, because these seem to be popular for some reason

Simon and Anthony


Nigel and company


Johnathan & friends, even though they're always last with the news and the website is horrible


Dutch cyclists we like because they're better/more attractive than British riders

Bobke Strut is so good that it deserves a category of its own

Arrr, bike pirates

George!

Things we hate so much we're not even going to link to them

  • Trust But Verify
  • Trek
  • Assos

Our e-mail inbox isn't just for Japanese gambling promotions and the latest advances in penis enlargement chemistry, you know

What's the word "derailed" got to do with bikes anyway?

  • Err... bikes have things called derailleurs? Apart from track bikes, which don't.

If derailleurs evolved from fixies, how come there are still fixies?

  • Survival of the fixest.
