If I,ve worked the times out correctly TT starts of 1400 our time, Best riders off from about 1500 ish.
G rider number wearing 17 and Kyri, Dumoulin and Froome off last 3 in that order, Froome number 1.

Spat with Cav and Wiggo created by headline writers I read, click bait journos being fed by left at home twice pusuiter maybe.

Gearing and tyre pressures going to be critical for the women in the rain and wind. Lots of ladies being very careful on the yellow lines on the downhill part.

Watch out for more criticism of BC with Hayley Simmonds busting comp records having been left out of the Rio team and sadly Emma Pooley not at her best.

Looking at the conditions of some of those roads, Helen Wyman could have been the best bet! It looked horrible.

and not to forget Dumoulin and his healing wrist for a very fine silver, but today Spartacus owned it.

Disappointed that Froome only got 3rd, but really happy for Cancellara and Dumoulin. Cancellara was crying at the end. What a way to end your career!

Meglet- I was disappointed Froome got third as well but damn it nobody went faster than him to push him out the medals :-)

Good news for young Hugh Carthy selected for La Vuelta, would be good to see him win a stage before offf to Cannondale for 2017.

Great shots if women pursuiters last night but there were some lingering shots of the fifth woman for NZ and GB trying to look both supportive and happy but not quite succeeding.

Team sprint was EPIC, King Kenny on his way to 3, x fingers and legs for thatvo happen.
