My guess is that the brownlees want Hayes to string out the pace to soften the legs up of everyone else. However, (and I'm not watching the feed, mind you), it doesnt really make sense for the lead pack to follow his attacks (if he is indeed trying to attack).

Yeah I went back and looked a bunch more and it was his left foot that wasn't fully in his shoe so the bump sent that foot off and then he hit one of the weird barrier legs in the road because he was so close to it plus getting his rear wheel hit just caused him to go into the barriers.

I'm just suggesting that Simon is just a little bit better than you as a triathlete. Or all of the guys in the race in London going on right now. (Unless you're typing this from your bike in the park right now).

Chacon screwed by another athlete's fuck-up.

Looks like an idiot looking over his shoulder every 2 seconds

Very interesting! When does he have to serve it? Do you make a big push for separation right before you serve, then use the 15 seconds to rest? Or would that sprint take too much out?

Did it on purpose cause he was under trained

I was looking for some radio covering of the race. Anyone listening to a tri-minded radio station?

You can serve it at any moment. My guess is he'll do it on the last lap of the run.

well he isn't just going to ride off by himself... he'll have two Brownlees attached to his wheel.

Something I haven't heard mentioned yet... Silva made the lead pack! He could certainly throw a wrench in things for the favorites.

Probrably in the finish shute while waving a British flag....;-)

And you think the rest of the 20 guys will just let them go?

Like I said, they arent getting away unless it's crash aided at this point.

22 athletes in front group +1:15 ahead of chase group, more than halfway through the bike- so they'll probably stay away

That's working for me.

I do not want the Brownlee's to win. I want there to be a spoiler in the race. I hate that there was talk of them crossing the line together in first place and sharing the win. Who is to say that they were going to win. I will take Gomez for the win.

WTF has that got to dow with it, he blew any chance he had making a newbie mistake that this place hangs amateurs for making every week. Yes Simon is a better triathlete than me, which has bugger all to do with the fact that he blew his last two years because he did not pay attention to what he was doing.

You guys even have a post saying he got taken out by the speedhump. Fark me I only go there every two years and I know the speed humps are there

I am liking Hunter Kemper's position right now. Wouldn't be surprised to see him top 5 or top 3, but not get into that spot until the very end of the run.

I predict a big crash on the bike and then Atkinson does a Bradbury and runs on for the win..

I love the brownlees having yellow shoes and fugly helments. Makes those lil monsters easy to spot.

Vasiliev has been jumpy on the front of the bike but nothing has been too threatening.

If no one is able to get away very soon then the group is likely to settle in on the last lap before the run


And Chacon is back in the race

I am OK with any situation other than those two at the finish line together in first and second place.

Gomez finally moved up towards the front. If somethings going to happen, it'll be happen soon.

Jonny Brownlee has a 15sec penalty from T1. When is the best time to take? Start of the run?
