With the Opening Ceremony for the London 2012 Olympic Games taking place later this evening, there seems to be great pride from the people of the Isle of Man that two cyclists from here are going for gold.
Mark Cavendish is favourite for tomorrow's Road Race and Peter Kennaugh will be part of the Great Britain Team Pursuit squad at the Velodrome next week.
Some shop windows have Olympic displays to set the tone.
These shoppers in Douglas feel it's a great excuse to wave the Manx flag and support our stars:-
FC Isle of Man back on travels for Longridge Town test
Hockey: League titles and relegations could be decided this weekend
Rugby: Douglas hoping to maintain high standing at Firwood Waterloo
Football: Laxey and Onchan out to secure Railway Cup spots
