World Championships

Yeah, that's right; the TRACK World Championships -- they need a thread.
Let's see how long it takes for this thread to get buried in the seldom-visited track forum.


Well done to Bos for blowing everyone away, and well done to the Aussies for beating the Poms in the team pursuit after we got whooped in the recent Commenwealth Games

This thread won't get buried in the track forum, that's more for track riders(?) as opposed
to pro racing.

well done by the Aussie team for the 4 medals.
France 2nd in medal placement, strange, I just don't think of France as
a track powerhouse.

Maybe not a complete powerhouse, but they have had at least a couple of powerhouse trackies in recent years.
I'm pulling names from memory not research so I could be wrong but I think Arnold Tournant was gun sprinter and didn't Marion Clignet win a bag of track medals over her career?

Can't believe I just defended the French
