live power numbers would be great right now. we have no way of knowing how deep guys are going to stay 1-2 minutes off lance.

Looks like he has the helmet on for aerodynamics only. The chin strap is pretty loose.

Poulat almost runs into the back of a car!?

Whats up with the traffic?

Poulat picking up a nice draft off the cars trailing Lance...

Yeah what's up with that? I guess they're just not sponsored?

why is there traffic? WTH....

Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, covered in scars, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming 'hell yeah', what a ride.

kienle will be interesting to watch, because he is digging deep (I think) to best Lance's bike time, so it will be fun to see his run too.

Great endurance athletes....The late great Ride Across America rider, Jure Robič

Welchie calls him Poulet haha (chicken in french)

Wow, talk about greedy? We go from monday morning ST coverage of who won a podunk 70.3 you really don't care about, to sporadic live text coverage, to this...and you're begging' for more?

3D holographic projections into my living room would be awesome too.

I don't know...Lance looks like he's hurting a bit, but Kienle really looks comfortable. Maybe he just doesn't show the pain as much but I think he's riding at a comfortable pace for him. Seems strange to think he could gain time on Lance and look better but that's what it looks like to me. The run will tell alot, of course.

you don't ask, you don't get. don't settle for the status quo my man.

funny. he does have chicken legs though. can't fathom him riding so hard and staying in the top ten..

All you need is a dollar and a dream..and a severe f*&%ing beating!!

Wow great coverage, sorry just arriving now :)

Yup, the run will be really interesting

What is the brand of choc milk? Think it needs a brand. last drink I had was hot chocalate, so agree with the others who say it is a bit of a bland advert.
Am picking there is a lot of people watching this.

I have been to the livestrong website a few times, first time was a few years ago. Even if he doesn't win he is certainly putting his charity in the front of peoples minds.
And to think ITU wa strying to get the athletes to not wear their own sponsors. And there won't be any athletes personal sponsors at the olympics either. Although think the bike and wetsuit brands still show.

anyone find images of the cycling shoes LA is wearing? look almost like clogs (clearly they're not...)

"He's racing anything but like a chicken today." Hahaha

His position is hardcore though!

What's with the commercials? We demand great coverage and it should be commercial free!

I miss YaHey

Did you forget your pink? lol :)

I'm loving this - Live video, Live Blog, Twitter, Slowtwitch all going at the same time.

I hope he throws his bike at some point. :)

Position great but looks so relaxed - and making time on LA.

there is a vid on triathlete showing his pre-race bike drop off. good shot of his shoes there. I'd link it for you, but I'm on my phone.

Socks for the run today?
