    Ryan Mullen, the 13th rider to start, is the current fastest at the first intermediate checkpoint with a time of 16'13" - a good 30 seconds up on the next quickest, Andriy Grivko (Ukraine).

    A great first intermediate from him. Hopefully he can keep it going and set a really respectable time.

    There's a lot of riders here that I have never heard of. Out of the 69 starters, I think I only recognise about 33 names :confused:

    It looks eerily quiet there. Back to complaints about wrong host venue...

    Van Emden is losing time to Mullen. Virtual +8 sec at the 31km mark.

    Nico has just started. He'll be doing well to match Mullen's time!

    Carlton Kirby has said that water backpacks (eg. CamelBaks) are allowed.

    Lampaert, who is the closest challenger on the course to Mullen, is starting to fade. Virtual 15 sec behind at the halfway point.
