Lord Coe visits the Chinese gymnasts

In this photo from Getty Images, Chairman of the London Olympic Commitee, Sebastian Coe visits with the Chinese gymnasts at their training centre in Beijing as part of a democratic trip to see the preparations of the Chinese for London 2012 and to promote the UK's readiness to take over the torch (so-to-speak) from Beijing 2008.

Coe, himself a 2 time olympic champion in the 1500m said to the athletes:

"Welcome, all of you, to London, We have lots of gymnastics fans in Britain, and you will be great draw there."

Coe said one of his goals is for the London Games to be athlete-centered.

"We have built the best athletes' village for you - athletes are always the most important people," he said.

Lord Coe also visited some of China's elite swimmers and promoted the launch of "Olympic Bicycles" at the British Embassy.

It's good to see Cheng Fei as part of the group, even if, like Shawn Johnson was in her return to training, she seems to be the only one not in a leotard!
