Channel 10 are lucky they are not within punching distance. Even the ever calm Mrs Laziali is getting cranky.

I can't believe we are missing this to watch a bunch of blokes jump off a board...

Really? WIN have Merlin on and then 60 Minutes instead of showing this here, so be grateful.

 

[Tuarts]

Sutton. Millar, Roulston, McCann are clear off the group.

You don't have 10?

 

[Andy99]

Proper good race this!

 

[Tuarts]

You don't have 10?

Not down here in regional (≈200km from Perth) WA.

 

[Tuarts]

No one helping Cavendish in the chase group, which is down to 4 including Cav and Davis.

 

[davis_123]

Australia have the legs for a 1-2 here if davis gets here

DAVIS has caught the front 4.

Australia looking real strong now, Millar will need one final attack off the front or he'll lose this. Can McCann even keep up with these guys, great ride by the Irish/Northern Irish cyclist.

 

[davis_123]

This is ours unless Millar gets away

 

[Tuarts]

Rollin up with the leaders now. Millar did attack but the GOLD DUO immediately caught him.

 

[Ferminal]

Cav is gone for good now... no wheels to suck.

 

[Tuarts]

Flurry of attacks from the Aussies have been chased down...nearing the end...

 

[Glockers]

too bad the digital signal is breaking up all over the place, great race.

 

[Tuarts]

ALLAN DAVIS \o/

 

[davis_123]

Another gold to aus, is anyone else even at these games?

[online-rider]

[Tuarts]

1. Allan DAVIS
2. Hayden ROULSTEN
3. David MILLAR
4. Christ SUTTON
5. David McCANN

Gold GOLD for Australia \o/

Great ride from Sutton to set up Davis, McCann...absolute herculean effort to stay with them after being in the break from the very start.

 

[davis_123]

how many K's left now?

Its over, Davis won

 

[Tuarts]

 

[Tuarts]

Now to watch this 3 hours delayed and in between diving and ad breaks. Oh joy...

 

[AussieGoddess]

Props to Davis ... he did well to get back - but it was a risk. he could just as easily ended up dragging Cav back with him

But what a fantastic ride by McCann though. He is 1 incredible rider. Would have loved to see him in the medals.

And Cav was MIA.
