Great, wasn't it?

Fortunately, she's not a jack, so there's no need to check if she'd nicked the bike

Yes - I was informed of that earlier today Apparently, the family were fortunate in that they managed to escape from the land of theft years ago and settled in the Vale of Glamorgan.

Gold for Geraint Thomas & co.
Another Gold for a Cymro on a bike. Team pursuit performance was outstanding

A few more on the way too, in the velodrome. Not so sure about track & field
