      Yes, just now. Philip Hindes, Chris Hoy & Jason Kenny, beat the Froggies in the men's team sprint (indoor cycling). We are good at cycling it seems. That's 5 gold medals now.

        But Wiggo is still top of the medals board, Hoy is now on a par with Steve Redgrave.

          Yep, but Hoy has 5 golds, Wiggo only has 4, and Hoy has the chance for another in the keirin.

                  Cycling and rowing are simply modes of transport. You might as well have a bus driving competition.

                    They don't require both skill and fitness.

                    I take back my original question. Canoeing probably qualifies.

                      And swimming, running and walking aren't?
                      While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'
