Oh Pendelton, you sexy lady!
I appreciate the amount of work that may have gone into writing the "image" section...and I know the vast amount of press coverage that she has recehttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Pageived for appearing "nude"...but is this really worthy content for a biographical article? Would we honestly be writing such guff about a male athelete? I think not. Let us document her Olympic acheivements rather than her pre-games publicity drive.

 * This is a biography, not a chronology of a cycling career. Is an appearance in this mag or that mag notable? Probably not. Is the fact that there has been widespread coverage of these appearances, external to those publications themselves, notable? Almost certainly. WFCforLife (talk) 22:53, 7 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Yes, precisely. The fact that she has presumably been paid to appear half undressed is surely part of career and and has certainly been the subject of much publicity and discussion. In fact the artistic nude pose emulated that of Lance Armstrong. I don't understand the gender point. IXIA (talk) 23:29, 14 February 2010 (UTC)

Reasons for retirement
Since her retirement vicky has said that the atmosphere in british cycling was a big part of her reason for quitting. I think this could be worth including.
