I suppose the Rabobank / Holland cycling effort is small beer in your eyes. Australia might go well, they might just do ok or if they take a leaf out of their swimmers book they might go as badly as Beijing where they scored the same number of cycling medals as Argentina. Point is talking about GB and 'the rest of the world' encompasses Australia...but you think fit to pull me up and start blathering on about 'big deals'. You can't let anything pass you without opening that hole on the front or your arrogant face and like any pub bore have the last word on every single matter.
Yes lets see Nigel, cos everytime one of those countries you so readily dismiss beats an Aussie trackie I'll be back to ask you how 'big a deal' their track cycling programme is.
Apologies to the other thread users for the derail.

I hope you two have been watching as well as arguing 'cos otherwise you've just missed two world records!

Yes China fastest in womens team sprint openers...not sure how much of a 'big deal' track cycling is there, lets see what Nige says.

You've been modestly entertaining as prick in residence on the cycling threads, but at this stage I'm running out of patience with your repetitive, aggressive, dishonest idiocy.Sigmund Fraud said:
At this year's world track championships, Australia (who headed the medal table) and GB (second place) won more Golds than every other country combined. In 2011, Australia (who headed the medal table) and GB (second place) also won more Golds than every other country combined. In 2010, Australia (who headed the medal table) and GB (second place) won one less Gold than every other country combined. In 2009, Australia finished top of the medal table, although Britain had a bad year and only came in third.
It really does take quite the cantankerous gobshite to turn a prediction of GB and Australia taking the lions share of the medals - as has been going on for years now - into some kind of controversy.
As for China, they consistently win one medal at Olympics and WCs, sometimes two. It's not impossible that they've launched some big programme aimed at these Olympics, but if they've done so, they haven't had much in the way of return on the track before just now.

Looks like it, they just announced Australia in the final with China 
Can anyone explain the 'window of change' to a novice?

Well that's kind of what I understood, but how does it work in cycling? Did she get out too late?

Yes, they really should be showing the "mistake" and explaining what was or wasn't done wrong.

What the BBC don't? Have they outsourced it or something?
