Was sooo close..I really wanted them to win..especially because the commentator kept on going on about how amazing the Americans are..and then that incident with the foul shot really got me..really arrogant!!

All respect for Brian together him and his brother have been incredible as a doubles paring but I don't like Sock one bit.

Just go try it out on your bike.

 

I have checked it on my bike a while ago. Hold rear wheel off ground, spin it up, throw crank backwards and come report back if it went from rotating backwards to forwards...

 

Your freewheel isn't perfect, it will transfer that forward momentum through the chain to the crank, eventually making it go from backwards to forwards.

At last...you wonder sometimes how long people have been riding bikes.Freewheel down the road then take your feet off the pedals

It was said the rider spun the cranks (and hence the back wheel) to get the chain back on. I questioned then why the cranks were going backwards. Over and out.

The speeds they ride these days there's just too many riders. Reckon they should reduce number of teams.
