Australians are travelling ok. We're just updating our story. There has been a bit of a breakaway by some South Americans, but neither is considered a medal chance

why is the italian being towed? shouldnt that be illegal? it hought it was a cycling race, not a towing race? :/
Saturday August 9, 2008 2:30 shin

[Comment From JDJD: ] 
Not illegal - They do it in the Tour De France as well..... Its a permission thing to maintain position for technical or medical reasons

the pelaton has about 196kms to go, and there are two guys from bolivia and chile who have a pretty decent lead... not meaningful at the moment though

[Comment From EmmaEmma: ] 
Stop bagging the poor Chilean and Bolivian guys and saying they're not threats - they're 17 kilometres in the frigging lead! I'd say they're doing pretty damn well for non-threats.
Saturday August 9, 2008 2:40 Emma

[Comment From JDJD: ] 
Wow how wrong was I.... Apologies all...... Maybe the Italian is doing the towing thing a little more than he should do - Saving his legs for the inevitable sprint...... Tad unacceptable methinks !

[Comment From ShaneoShaneo: ] 
The guys that are 17km ahead with 190 odd to go will find that they've gone too hard too early. You'll see.

A bit like the Melbourne Cup, the horse leading the race all the way round rarely wins. Doesn't have the legs at the end.

[Comment From BrentonBrenton: ] 
Instead of saying we're in with a chance, can you tell us if we're really going to win? You say you're in with a chance when you buy a lotto ticket, is that the sort of odds we're talking about here
Saturday August 9, 2008 6:45 Brenton
6:46
Beijing Now: 
@Brenton a bit better than a lotto ticket. If it was a lotto ticket it would be worth handing over a few bucks.

[Comment From GuestGuest: ] 
how about 4 chances out of 40 brenton? but with rogers/evans the true chance for medal (lloyd hanging about and gerrans at back end... epic ride from him)

[Comment From GusGus: ] 
Brenton, have another look at what you wrote. Not too Einsteinaceous. It's a race, nobody can tell who's going to win until the finish. If you're in the peleton without a breakaway too far ahead, you're in with a chance. That's as goos as it gets. If we knew for sure we'ed all be millionaires from the TAB.
