But why were all those cyclists in one place at the time he was going past? Protest? Against what?

I didn't really read too much as I'm a bit fuzzy , but it's just a group of people who want to cause disruption with no particular aim. Correct? I'll read it properly in the morning.
when they parachuted down it may have been the real Queen but the James Bond was a fake
A parachuting Queen and James Bond? What, really? Oh dear. Let me guess, people were actually cheering on and encouraging this level of ****ery?

It was good fun, we don't expect you to understand.
Quite right too. Apart from Macca fluffing his opening to Hey Jude the entire ceremony was flawless and great, captivating entertainment.
As for it being based in London, WTF should it have been based - leicester FFS?
No. Somalia. That'd be ****ing brilliant, even I'd watch that. Gangs of marauding Islamists shooting the place up, there'd be some great youtube clips and imagine them trying to enforce their ****ing brand identities there.
Shame some people are as negative and boring as expected.
You won't be watching the Olympics and won't be within hundreds of miles, so why does the branding annoy you so much? You can drink, eat and wear whatever you choose. It seems like just wanting to be annoyed at "the corporation" for the hell of it.
Opening ceremony was absolutely terrific, and that is coming from a miserable sceptical bastard. Shame some people are as negative and boring as expected.
Away from the opening ceremony I was a bit annoyed by Mark Cavendish and his little spat at the reporter interviewing him for the news. He asked a very relevant question only to be shot down by Cavendish who asked him if he knew anything at all about cycling, I thought the Olympics was supposed to help encourage people to become interested in sports they wouldn't normally consider, I'm glad our local racing club wouldn't show that attitude to a new road racer, terrible ambassador for the sport on that little show.
Women's beach volleyball
That's all I'm saying
Considering the numpty didn't seem to know that Cav had just cycled 3500km around France and shown a clean pair of heels to the best sprinters in the world racing down the Champs Elysees last Sunday, I'd say his reply was a model of restraint.
Would pay serious money to hear him interviewed by Stringer.
Butch giants with no tits, that's all I'm saying.
