We were always going to get a few in the cycling, sailing and rowing. We've
been excelling at these since after the lottery started.
After the success in these sports it would be nice to see more people in the
UK get involved. I would lke us to be better in shooting and archery, enter
some good teams in the team sports so we can clean up in 2012.

I have been trying to get the IOC to allow Break-dancing to be brought
in as an Olympic sport.

Surely you're too old for that Baldoni. You need a less energic sport such
as synchronised darts.

I was a lot younger when I started my campaign. It has been a long and
thankless quest.
