2016 Olympic Road Races and Time Trials *Spoilers*

Why has someone drawn a comedy moustache on Armstrong's visor?

 

[HF2300]

That's four times posted faster than Pooley at the first split, all by riders who'll go well over the second half of the course...

Although they appeared to have Pooley as 3rd at the second check??

But a minute down on Whitten, who probably won't medal - she's way off the pace

I'm getting confused, of course the fast riders came through after Pooley.

That was early, a short while later she was down to 5th before disappearing off the board.

Christ, I'm glad I'm not relying on you lot to keep me up to date with the situation...

 

[Buddfox]

I'd like to see Villumsen win this today, of the likely contenders. Just a soft spot for New Zealand

1:30 down for Emma

Zabalinskaya almost 7 seconds up on Armstrong at the first time check. This is the Russian who was drafted in late because all the others were ineligible due to past doping offences.

She's Danish

 

[HF2300]

She's Danish

She's New Zealandish and rides on an NZL licence.

Van Dijk must be kicking herself for that fall. Storming finish, hope it was too much for Zabelinskaya.
