Armstrong adds to the medal count, and a very good win for her
Tuft more than 30 seconds faster than Medici through first check.

Agreed. I have no idea why he was selected. He's riding for GLS, a sucky Danish team, he hasn't delivered any results for approx. 3-4 years, and yet he's still in the Olympic team. I don't get it. I'm not saying that we have any other good time triallers, but in any case, Vandborg doesn't deserve it.
Oh, and while I'm complaining, I can mention the Danish commentators who for some reason believe that Chris Anker Sørensen can do a top race today. Seems like that they forgot we're doing a time trial... |

It will be close between Tuft and Gesink but Gesink will probably lose a bit of time in the 2nd section as it is mostly downhill instead of the uphill first bit. Shame that Cummings has started to fade.

He is maybe fooled by the hilly course..
