He won the men's cycling Keirin for Team GB, which is his last Olympic appearance before he retires. He ended his cycling career on a high!

I don't know much about cycling, but a lady from my little town (Temecula) won silver for the USA in omnium (not even sure I'm spelling that right, lol)  . . . . she had retired, but decided to make a comeback, so glad she was successful!!! She grew up in Redondo Beach near me too

Katie Taylors win i no doubt the highlight of the games so far.... and as for the crowd, the Irish are undoubtedly the best supporters in the world!!
