How has Gaze come back from that gap after 70mins?

No idea - we were on a two minute ad break INCLUDING advertising for whether anyone wanted to be in the Maori fucking electoral roll. Fuck you NZ Government!!!

@chris-b I was watching the local stream. Cooper saw off the South African who had clearly tired and then Gaze swamped Hatherly (sp?) and caught Cooper with half a lap spare. He looked fresh as a daisy.

@antipodean Our local stream showed the replay of Gaze dismounting at the start-finish and Cooper and Hatherly disappearing into the distance - cut to the ads before he got back on his bike - by the time we came back from the fucking ad break Gaze had caught Cooper.
Waay too good!

Shame there isnt 20 different lengths they can race and do it backwards, forwards...
Have 150 medals up for grabs, then we would be up there with Oz on the medal table.Not to mention the team and individual pursuit and the freestyle and medley relays so ideally suited to mountain biking. Full contact roller derby style racing would be a real crowd pleaser as well, again teams and individual categories.

Cooper does well to be a world class cyclist - he looks like a young Van Morrison!
Van Morrison couldn't ride a bike?
They just showed the Gaze tech stop to change the puncture (might have just been inflate). Was like watching F1, cost him about 15 to 20 secs apparently so pretty bloody good to come back and win.

Sounds like Gaze and Cooper would be happy enough just to set up a boxing ring at the top of the hill and stop off for a couple of rounds against each other!
Gaze not happy that Cooper attacked whilst he had stopped for a puncture.
