Tubs are tubeless sort of, don't know if they run sealant. I wouldn't think so as races are short in this case and punctures unlikely. In longer stuff there is often a car following with wheels and time less critical.

Splits anyone?

Why are none of them using the designated bike lanes??

A disgraceful example to set young cyclists - I'll be sending a letter to the Daily Mail immediately.

Strange, Wiggins looks quite slow but it's just the camera angles and the fact that he's pushing a monster gear.

Going to be close between Silver and Bronze.

Tubs are tubeless sort of

Not really - only in that they rarely pinch because there's no rim hook to pinch on. They still have an inner tube sewn into the tyre.

Road tubeless when it comes will be great IMO - the scariest experience of my life was a front wheel puncture at about 40mph on a bend...

Some amazingly big time gaps given it's only a 50ish km flattish course.

Wiggo reported 26" up on field at 29km check.

Go Wiggins.

If he gets gold, look out for a very pissed skinny bloke staggering around london tonight.
