didn't see any discussion about it in the kona thread or elsewhere.

Did anyone hear what happened to him? Bad day?

5:15 for the bike seems like an off day for a guy of his caliber.

Aparently Michael was pretty sick race week, at least that is what I remember. I got to talk to him and Andreas shortly after the race. Andreas seemed more bummed about this brother's bad day than pulling 2nd away from Fredrik Van Lierde.

One thing about Kona. You have all these folks flying in from all over the world. Many athletes are on 3, 6, 12 hours of jetlag and their immune systems are suppressed, and you're going into a climate that is vastly different than back home. On top of that, the athletes are mingling with a ton of people. Every year you hear about some favourite that is sick on race week.
