Cycling - Road Race - Men | London 2012 Olympic Games

Thoroughly annoyed that Vino won. The sky train might have worked in the tour but not on this day.

I appreciate the neutral thumbnail image that doesn't spoil the result. Not sure why you wouldn't do the same for your 2016 and 2020 full race videos.

Not even 1/2 hour into the ride, 100 cyclists meet at the same urinator...It must have been a long wait for the start

Men are such gr0ss creatures

keep it up guys nice video's

alguien piense en el hombre de la camara por 6 horas con la camara en la mano

BabyLONdon!

Wiggins.

First Time Watching Due to Study commitment.

The Cycling Went Through Teddington, Twickenham, And Kingston

Very poor commentary. They couldn't recognise riders unless they could see the number, and didn't even recognise the national jerseys sometimes. Several times said they were on the circuit when they hadn't reached it yet. It would also have been nice if they had said where the riders were (Cobham, Ripley etc) but I don't think they had a clue; I know these roads well but the camera was not always at an angle to see well.

wow the Pinarello Dogma 2012 have the same look as my 2021 Pinarello Rahza today ......

What is the average front chainring size? Looks like a 52T

Abysmal C-grade commentary. Mute it and provide your own, you'll enjoy the race more.

Казахстан Алга!

Que pavo Uran. Para que miro atras. Perdio el oro

I love that fact that Box Hill became Mecca for cyclists in the south of England after this.

ACÁ EN ECUADOR X FAVOR EN ESPAÑOL, ENGLISH NO ENTIENDO

Thought one of the teams was sponsored by McDonald's for a moment until I realized it was Spain.

Did you watch the football matches from day -1?
Go back.

That dog was bout to get clapped

For those questioning why Uran would take a bribe rather than battle for gold, you need to consider the situation. He was in a two-man break, pulling away from a large chase group, with the entire peloton bearing down on them a bit further behind. He attacked solo, but ended up Vinokourov on his wheel. Once he saw Vino, he probably understood that his best possible outcome in the race was getting second place behind Vino.. and the most likely outcome was being caught by the break-away or entire peloton. He wasn't going to win a sprint against Vino. Without a climb, he probably would not have attacked and got away from him. If one of them would have attacked and finished solo, it would be Vino..... At some point, Vino (or his team?) proposed the deal. Perhaps it was proposed right after him and Uran got away - that would be the smart thing for Vino to do, because the deal would include Uran working together with him and riding very hard, not saving for a sprint or cat and mouse ending. Since Uran wouldn't have expected to beat Vino, accepting the deal was a smart thing. Also it is possible that the deal included Vino paying Uran whether they were caught or not (as long as Uran worked hard). If Vino had not proposed the deal, it is possible - or perhaps likely - that they would not have worked as well together and would have been caught. For Vino and Uran, that deal was good and beneficial for both of them. It is only bad from the perspective of the chase groups. But also, even without a deal, there was a good chance that Uran would have done the same thing (except also put in SOME effort at the end).. because this was his best option and his only chance for a medal. If he went to the finish with that large breakaway, no way he was finishing in the top 3 (and in the Olympics, no other finishing places matter)

I once watched Milan San Remo, on a stream with the Italian commentators. A camera was stationary on a downhill turn with riders going by single file. One of these commentators was able to rattle off the names of nearly every single rider going by - at least 50 rider names within one or two minutes. And these guys can't recognize Vinokorouv or Uran, out alone and shown continuously on camera for minutes.

"Looks like a Dutch rider took the bronze" - There's some well informed commentator for you.

I found myself!

When it was 42km to go commentator: "whatever what happens in next hour and half.."
Lol! What a fail to estimate time!

I watched the whole video ._. but I enjoied it lol

The tough equipment allegedly complete because office naturally scare apropos a gaping slope. deranged, cruel raft

This circuit is nice but Rio was more beautiful and dynamic

Here we are again rewatching the 2012 olympics during covid19.

I hope Vinokourov paid Uran well for his sprint 'efforts'.

How much did Vino gave to Uran to win this time ?
I mean Uran just looked at him on his right and then for no reason search immediatly for him on his left letting Vino begin his sprint and then loose interest in the race for 5 seconds letting Vino take 20 meters before beginning his own sprint.

Specialized bike wins again! : D

the most boring race ever
