Official Silverman coverage thread
Quote | Reply
It seems the other threads are getting off to a rocky start, so I'll try to establish one that gets some traction.

Warkentin, Kaufman and Kenney are all withn 20 seconds. these from the open-water swim crowd (they go to nationals, FINA worlds, etc.). jonas not in yet, and it appears may have missed the buoy and had to backtrack. our coverage is here:

I thought there was a live video link, but cant find anything on the site. The slowtwitch link on the site does not work either.

Does Bjorn now go even harder and risk blowing up due to the swim goof?

Looking forward to the second half of this bike, thanks for the coverage.

Dan,

Do you know the how's and where's of Jonas and the missed bouy? Wow, that really sucks for the Doodes, hope it doesn't cost them the race.

I wonder how many different languages Jonas can curse in?



PS - random thought - I'd love to see side-by-side pics of Tyler on his P3C and Bjorn on his. Tyler would be like Bjorn's Mini-Me :-)

BWAHHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAA!!!!!

Great coverage, but shouldn't the most recent updates be at the top instead of the bottom?

Also, is there a live video feed for this ala Ironmanlive.com? I found the videos, but I want to camp out in front of my computer all day long watching this.

On a course like this I think being a "mini-me" is a nice advantage. Bjorn's a big dude, hell of a rider, but I am sure he would trade upper bodies with Tyler today if he could.

yeah, that was unfortunate. i don't know enough about all the swimmers to know what the difference in Jonas time would have been had he not missed a bouy. if he would have been within a couple minutes of them that really does suck to lose so much time. We know he has a great biker and runner so hopefully they can close the gap. Looks like Tyler is putting some time on everyone in the first part of the ride.

i do it cyclingnews.com style, with the updates on the bottom. maybe i should take a poll and see what people prefer. it's all the same to me.

Do you think maybe he had a little button that he could push and it loosened the clamp... something he could do when Tyler was kicking his butt so that he had an "excuse" ;-)
