The German felt bikes look loving sick but are they just resprayed looks?

Shame the brits are on tri bikes rather then the super cool custom bikes they used to get.

Phil Hindes and one of the girls are still using them

All sprayed black and they look rad

Are you allowed to overtake on the inside (if there's room)?

Not once the proper sprint has started

Front guy also not allowed to move out their lane at that point

No you have to come round the outside unless there is mountains of space.

Just to clarify you aren't supposed to stray into the blue. The black line is the shortest way round the track. The red line designates the sprinters lane and you shouldn't be outside that once you've started your sprint in front.

Illegal change, like handing over the baton outside the zone in athletics

Lead rider went too long

No timing information for the pursuit since the overlays are only on the main camera which they cut away from before it registers.

Also I don't belive a word of that cav throwing a strop and refusing to train stuff. Completely against everything I've ever read about him and he sacrificed another win on the champs elysee for a chance at the pursuit
