I've got a massive crush on Laura Trott.
She's just such a lovely person, in addition to being a fantastic cyclist. What a performance.

There was a Paul Radmilovic in that list of GB's most prolific medallists

Any ideas as to what I can do tonight? Diary looks a little empty.

I might tackle the growing ironing pile, or check out my e-mails. Floor could do with a hoover, too. Might even try out some cooking, or talk to my wife about someting other than cycling.

How much info do the riders have access to during the points race? Is there a board with current points on for them to see? I found it confusing enough sitting on the sofa with Chris Boardman patiently explaining things and relaying totals.

There is a big results board - Viviani commented about having a good look at it during his 'off'. Not sure how easy it would be to see it when you're tear arsing around the track tho'.

Info used to be relayed by helpers at the side of the track, they're all behind a barrier now so I don't suppose that's as easy.

There will also be commentary updates to the spectators, but info there would be limited and maybe difficult to hear as a rider?
