Just fine for me down here in Oz

Working fine for me. Looks like a gorgeous day. And solid field both men and women. Should be fun.

cock-up before conspiracy

It's working fine for me. Just have to endure the Outside TV ads every couple of minutes.

It is currently working here...which is nice given my last watching experience.

Ok, good to hear. I'm at a hotel, so probably just janky wifi.

I'm currently knocking an entire felled tree because, well, I fully expect it to crash at some point (and will be pleasantly surprised if it doesn't).

Nice breakaway group in the water for the men. We haven't seen a small group in a while. Sharpe, Bokos, and Appleton in that front group.

I was expecting Tomas to be there, he's a solid swimmer and came out with the front pack in Oceanside and St George.

What happened to Holly's swim? It hasn't been what it used to be. She's almost 2 minutes down according to the commentators.

Lesley Smith with stuff down her front, for the aero gain.

Surprisingly for me in the UK it's working just fine! I am sure something will go pop at some point but a step in the right direction in my opinion. Gets the sport out there in real time - free to watch and only endless adverts to ut up with every 5 minutes. My TV is off and my computer is ON!

He who understands the WHY, will understand the HOW.

No issues YET through Firestick on TV.

Let food be thy medicine...

the looping thing is a common problem with Outside - be patient and/or reload, and it should come back.

on the women's side, it looks like knibb was able to hold lauren's toes and is now tearing the bike apart. seems pretty early to call it, but. . .

for the men, will be cool to see how long matt can stay off the front. long getting lots of screen time and moto company, but haven't seen much of lionel yet.

Knibb, not unexpectedly, laying waste to the bike course….

Same with Long. He's almost at the front now, dropping Sanders in the process.

just tried (and failed!) to post a screengrab - long about 20 feet behind a moto, passing age groupers riding two abreast. come on, man!

and both moto and Sam crossing the yellow line (to go around ag that are passing) on a road that is open to traffic on the other side.

Was watching that, too, as the age grouper (who is riding with knees askew and a therefore wiggling back and forth) overtakes multiple people by staying to the left). Sam had to cross the double yellow to avoid this guy and others. It looked so dicey because that AGer didn't look like a very stable bike handler. Oofff

Why is Lionel wearing a sleeveless top?

He seems to give up a bit of speed for the amount of power he puts out.

He seems to race better sleeveless for whatever reason. Might be placebo, might be “material on my arms feels terrible,” and might be “it turns out I’m faster without sleeves.”

Whatever works, I s’pose.

It’s insane that every race Lieto seems to “forget” that Jeanni Metzler is married. Every race he calls her Jeanni Seymour.

Either terrible prep or something personal with Justin. But annoying AF

Leiferman on the move!

another sprint finish for Lionel. what a show!

Never doubt The Lion in a sprint finish!

Omg that was insane to watch!!! Jumping in my chair!

Why is it always lionel in these sprints? Oceanside, st. George and now boulder!

Also another win for Sam! In easy fashion, his 70.3 is on form, is he planning any 140.6 this year?
