This photo from last night's men's Olympic 400 m relay swim race is hilarious. The Chinese official is looking at Phelp's nearly exposed crotch like he is going to be traumatized for the rest of his life for spotting something he would have rather not seen.

On Saturday I went to the Dick Lane Velodrome for a certification class and as I expected, I enjoyed track racing very much. As an added bonus, the summer heat has broken and the temperature was only in the high 80s. The races are short, fast, intense, and ridden on a bike with no brakes. And I love riding my fixed gear bike, so this is another excuse to ride it even more. What does a velodrome look like? Check out photos of random people racing at Dick Lane.
