    Mark Rohan and Fankhauser of Switzerland lead the third placed rider by 12 seconds with 8km to go, 4th place another 30 seconds back.

    Looks good for a medal, very tense.

    I didn't, Silvio,

    I was reading the updates on http://www.paralympics.ie/live/ which were very good.

    Having no pictures made it extra-tense, but I should have had more faith in Mark. Never in doubt! :)

    Make the most of Jason Smyth's run tonight everyone....it's likely to be the last time we'll see an Irish victory and hear Amhran na bhFiann at these Paralympics. Could also be our last medal of the Games though we'll have an outside chance in the road race cycling tomorrow.
    We can't complain though....these Games have been so good to us....
    extraordinary results for the Irish team.

    Well said Dan and what a way to end the Games with the fastest Paralympian on the planet burning up the track...:)

    Michael Conlan is on the Late Late tonight....probably Paddy Barnes along with him. Might watch that too. About the only time I watch it, when I know one of the Irish athletes are coming on :D
