good point but not the way its done of course as you know, the lead was 5 minutes out now under one minute, looks live Cavo will take it and chase down the Aussie (lead group).

No because then all nations would need equal teams starting the race.

Just watched entire mens road race on dvr. I think it was broadcast delayed starting 5:00 am pst. Was pleased that schlanger got the play by play, made sherwin almost tolerable. Schlanger "whats the tactics of the breakaway group now?" Sherwin "Henry the 8th had 8 wives" omg. Great camera coverage and direction and almost complete coverage except for a few swimming heats dropped in. Looking forwrd to womens race tommorrow. Congrats to the old Kazak Battlehorse. Congrats to European peloton so afraid to help someone win they always loose.
