top 6 men in timed training less than 1 second apart! rachel up by over 1 MINUTE on the next woman in timed training.

yeah, timed training doesn't really mean anything, but pretty fascinating results.

Brosnan .4 back in TT and it looks like I'll be stuck on a plane for finals. Fuck.

Man I hate this shit. Lourdes comes in says "hey remember awesomeness?", blows up my brain, then WC mountain biking disappears for months.

You cruel whore! I have feelings too!


Cairns doesn't count. That track needs to fuck off to 1812 where it came from.

Yeah, Cairns and 1812 were rough...Gee won the race and the Brits torched DC...wait, any way they'd burn that place down again?

Qualis going on now, looks like Brannigan is first casualty of the day and might be sitting this one out on Sunday (#25, unprotected). 79th at the moment with several fast guys to go.

Hope he's ok.

I also see that Remi Thirion is DNF - hope he's also ok.

Go Peaty! So want him to make the cut.

What Remi happened？
apparently injured his wrist after timed training yesterday. he just rolled out of start gate to get a time today as he's a protected rider and will be able to race (if he's physically able)

That was Loic's to lose, really, shame he couldn't put it together in the last few corners. Gwin, though, is a class act.

At 2:32, can anyone confirmed that 250K$ are how much Yt paid for Gwin ?
Eddie's accent is sometimes hard to understand for non english spoken people.
If yes, quite strange he accepts to answer directly to this taboo question.

Eddie was asking how much was his new Audi (eg. "How was was the new car?")

Edit: guess he was asking about Martin's Jag and not Audi. Still...pimp car for sure.
