    More than half the field have "abandoned" Dowsett looking good for the overall if he can hold on the mountains...

    Cheers, that's very good, though I have a feeling that "Abandoned" list might be slightly wrong....

    Apologies for causing such excitement in a TT thread :D Maybe there are links to other/ better tickers within the Steephill website.

    This from moments ago :?

    Standing talking to Dave Brailsford and Tim Kerrison at the start of TT, rain seems an hour away which is when Bradley Wiggins starts.

    Durbridge just in 35" down on Dowsett, who is still in the lead.

    Got to get the wet bike ride done early today to get back ready for Giro ITT. Think there'll be surprises.... #giro

    Mr No-nonsense Well-Connected but Telling it Straight knows that Wiggo is in "better shape than last year" as claimed and has just been unlucky so far; he'll blow the field away. Or he knows that Wiggo is sick and will struggle to even top 10.

    Which is most likely?

    Hardest tt of my life.

    Anyone pick Dowsett for PTP? If the weather worsens significantly he may be in with a shout.

    Has Cav got a really bad beard, or is it just my feed?

    Well I got none of my chores done as I've spent the last 3 hours on the phone! Now I'll just have to stay in out of the rain and watch this. :D

    Is Cav in danger of the time limit with that time?

    Rain now constant but not torrential, roads will be wet and the many descents in first half of 54km time trial will cost Wiggins time.

    Edit That said not seen any rain on TV yet

    So will Wiggo be on the Bolide, graal or road bike?

    Specialist testers seem to be doing well. Bodes well for Wiggins.
