Chris Hoy: Scottish team in Olympics would be 'ridiculous' - The Scotsman

"The Edinburgh cyclist, who carried the flag for Team GB at the closing ceremony in Beijing, reacted angrily to remarks from Stewart Maxwell, the sports minister, who said "a Scottish team at the Olympics is the future". Scotland's greatest-ever Olympian said he wouldn't have "three gold medals hanging round my neck" if he had not been part of Team GB."

..........

"When he asked about those comments in Beijing yesterday, Hoy said: "Before anything like that could be discussed, he'd have to look at the facilities and resources in Scotland. At the moment, we don't have an international facility for cycling. We don't have the coaching or anything else in place."
