"There is a truth to sport, a purity, a drama, an intensity. A spirit that makes it irresistable to take part in, and irresistable to watch. In every Olympic sport there is all that matters in life.

And one day we will tell our children, and our grandchildren, than when our time came we did it right."
- Seb Coe, opening the 2012 games

Chen Guanming has cycled from Beijing to London for no reason other than that it was the only way he could afford to get to the games, and he wanted to be here and to spread some Olympic spirit on the way.  What an absolute hero.
