Great Britain have won mens team pursuit gold -- giving Sir Bradley Wiggins a fifth Olympic gold and a British record eighth medal in all.Britains Ed Clancy, Steven Burke, Owain Doull and Wiggins clocked a world record three minutes 50.265 seconds in the final of the four-man, four-kilometre event, surpassing their earlier record-breaking time of three minutes 50.570 in the first round.Australia advanced to the final while keeping Jack Bobridge in reserve, having so far not shown their full hand. And the perennial rivals -- Australia won Marchs world title ahead of Britain -- slugged it out for gold.Britain were trailing until 500m to go, when a huge roar erupted from the numerous Britons in the crowd. It was Britains third straight Olympic title in the event, which Wiggins and Clancy also won at the 2008 Games in Beijing.Wiggins told BBC: Really the last 12 months weve pretty much done everything together, training camps at altitude, early-morning starts at the track, late finishes at the track before Christmas Day, all for this.And were here and weve done it. These four guys here -- I would never have come back if we didnt have the calibre. Ive always said Ed and Burkey, for me, are two of the most underrated athletes Ive ever raced with.Theyre so talented and they dont get the credit for it because theyre not big road stars. Then youve got Doully who reminds me of a young G [Geraint Thomas]. He can do anything in the sport and nothing fazes him, especially Olympic finals at 21.When youre with guys like that on the line it makes your job a hell of a lot easier. In some ways I realised what we were going into and that adds nerves to it.These guys were bouncing off the ceiling all afternoon. But I kept it all in check. One step at a time, not thinking about the gold. Thats hard when all our teammates are winning golds in front of you.Australias Alex Edmondson, Michael Hepburn, Sam Welsford and Bobridge clocked three minutes 51.008 seconds. Bronze went to Denmark ahead of New Zealand.Britain beat their own world record - of three minutes 51.659 set in winning gold at London 2012 -- in the first round, effectively a semifinal, which took place 80 minutes prior to the final.There were reports that Britain and Australia had clocked unofficial world records in training in the last 18 months and it appeared Australia had been bluffing in the first two rounds.Australia set off faster and kept Britain at bay, but lost a rider before the 3km mark. Burke peeled off with under two laps to go, once Britain were ahead, and Wiggins took to the front.So powerful was his surge that Wiggins distanced Doull. Three riders must cross the line to record a time and Doull clung on as Britain triumphed by 0.743.

Nike Air Max Online Store .Y. -- Sabres defenceman Tyler Myers had no intention of changing his hard-hitting style before taking part in a disciplinary hearing for his illegal check to New Jersey forward Dainius Zubrus head. http://www.airmaxtrainerswholesale.com/ . If ever they start actually putting pictures beside words in the dictionary, the Blue Jays left-handers mug will appear beside “Consistency. Cheap Nike Air Max Shoes . And when it opened, every player was at his stall. Thats a sure sign that a team is in a slump and is searching for answers. "Its embarrassing to be at home and play the way we did," said defenceman Josh Gorges. Nike Air Max Womens Sale . It was hard for Luck to pull off another comeback, or even get into the end zone, while standing on the sideline. Rivers threw a 22-yard touchdown pass to rookie Keenan Allen and Nick Novak kicked four field goals to give the Chargers a 19-9 victory against the Colts on Monday night. Munster are the new Guinness PRO12 leaders after coasting to a seven-try 46-3 win over Benetton Treviso at Thomond Park.Andrew Conway and Ronan OMahony scored two tries each, Robin Copeland started the rout with a pushover effort and Darren OShea and replacement Alex Wootton grabbed their first senior scores for the Irish province.With man-of-the-match Tyler Bleyendaal pulling the strings from fly-half in freezing temperatures, Munster led 22-3 at half-time. Dubliner Ian McKinley kicked Trevisos only points.Second row OShea sealed the bonus point in the 42nd minute, and energetic wingers OMahony and Wootton restarted the scoring with three touchdowns in the closing 16 minutes, as Rassie Erasmus men climbed a point clear of Leinster at the top of the table.The hosts actually took a while to settle, former Leinster fly-half McKinley booting Treviso into an eighth-minute lead before Bleyendaal responded on the quarter-hour mark.A terrific five-metre scrum saw Munster march Treviso back over their line for number eight Copeland to touch down in the 20th minute, with Bleyendaal converting for 10-3.The New Zealander increased his influence with a well-weighted chip through, OMahony raced up to pressurise the Treviso cover and the onrushing Conway pounced on the loose ball for an unconverted try.Darren Sweetnam did well to thwart Michael Tagicakibau from McKinleys dangerous cross-field kick, befoore Munster extended their lead to 19 points with a brilliantly worked 34th-minute try from inside their own half.ddddddddddddBleyendaals deft kick pass found OMahony, at full tilt, and he did well to link with the supporting Conway who sped along the left touchline for a classy seven-pointer.OSheas first PRO12 try, barely two minutes after the restart, saw him charge onto a Bleyendaal pass and he proved unstoppable from close range.The Kiwi threaded the difficult conversion through the posts for good measure. Without a large number of players through international call-ups and injuries, Treviso continued to struggle at set-piece time and could not penetrate a solid Munster defence, which was typified by young debutant centre Sam Arnold.The game lulled along with Munster guilty of poor discipline, before OMahony made it over in the corner in the 64th minute after an initial maul had been held up.Wootton made an immediate impact off the bench, and the Ireland Sevens international rounded his man for the second time to notch a deserved try, converted by Ian Keatley.Munster could have had a couple more scores late on, but they did register a seventh of the afternoon when Copeland used lineout ball to break to the blindside and feed OMahony for another crisp finish.
