    Many of the women looked woefully over geared for the final climb. Archibald was one of the least worst offenders and probably built a good part of her deficit to Pooley right there.

    I think there were a few and how do I put this kindly are possibly built more for flat courses!

    Men just starting, steady drizzle and just been told Wiggins won't be riding if it's too wet!

    Is there any way of following this, stream, ticker, anything? Or am I limited to this spoiler thread and its shocking lack of cheese, geology and horses?

    Which one's Moonshine? Is he wearing his 'BRPR' skinsuit?


    I had one of them red bikes but I don't any more. Sad face.

    No stream. Highlights on Sunday. Then live coverage of the final 2 hours of the road race

    Would be nice if the postman won even if we will never see the bands apart from on English A roads.

    Approaching half distance, and Geraint Thomas is 20 seconds away from catching David Millar.


    Looks a nice course for G.

    Apparently Mr Millar is getting caught already. Embarrassingly bad year for him so far...hopefully he is not taking much of a salary and does something of note later.

    So if Wiggins does his usual slower first half it looks like he's on fire!

    Not knocking the U23s, but amazing that the seniors are going to do twice the distance at a higher pace.

    Rain picking up now apparently.

    U23 in 28.1mph average.
    Ladies in 25.7
    Mens in 28.9 in twice the distance plus light to heavy rain.

    Super fast especially with a nasty ramp involved.

    Congratulations Wiggins.
