    Keane/Frodeno group closing the gap down to 52sec now

    Gaining almost 30secs on that lap is a good sign. Should close up by end of the bike if the lap if they continue. Question is how much is it taking out of Keane's legs? His black trisuit was offputting for a while, kept looking for a green one.

    Disappointing. God the BBC commentary is awful. The race is awful boring too IMO, wish the Brownlee's were there to hammer it and keep it honest. Falling asleep now......zzzzzzz

    Yeah you can see his frustration... He had a great chance for a good finish and well needed ranking points.

    Ah sh1te....what a pity! What bike is/was he riding?? Don't think I have seen one of them before and it seemed to fall to pieces. Well that woke me up again!

    BTW prob be a good idea to stick a spoiler alert in the thread title if possible MCOS.

    Just finished watching the highlights now - I know it would have made no difference in the end but Aileen really needs to work on those transitions, every time I have seen her she loses time.

    Harrison left her for dead in T1 and while coming in with the lead bunch she comes out 11 seconds behind Haug and the lead group

    Damn red button again next week - severely tempted to switch to Sky now (particularly with Game of thrones starting tomorrow)

    Cheers for that woody1. Watching it - it almost looked like his fromt wheel came off. I replayed it a few times and didn't look like anyone touched him! Maybe I need a trip to specsavers!!

    You definitely need a trip to specsavers! Cam good took out his rear wheel. I bet Good's wheel clipped open Bryan's skewer. In the impact on the fall his front wheel came out. It was sickening. I stayed up watching the race and was getting very excited after he managed to bridge up to the main group. I bet he would have run good enough for a top 10 which would have seen his ranking soar! It was a decent race nonetheless. Looking forward to the next one in two weeks! For 16 quid its good value too

    Old age what can I say!! Was delighted when he bridged the gap and then wallop. Disappointing not to get to see him run. Possibly a top five finish?

    Duno about top 5 but certainly 10 i think. Real shame! Hopefully he can get a start at San Diego if that is a planned race.

    Predictions for Yokohama this weekend?

    Bryan Keane back, moderate field how will he do? Johnny Brownlee taking his turn, can Richard Murray take him? Women's field pretty short so Aileen could podium?

    Men - Gomez 1st/Brownlee 2nd/Murray 3rd, Keane could nudge a top 5.
    Ladies - Caelars 1st/Jorgenson 2nd/Moffat 3rd.
