  • I can see Tom! Click on the link then video 1.

  • Seems to have just pushed his bike away, not sure if that means it's all over. The video is not helping much...

  • Not sure what I'm watching, but it's not exactly riveting yet.

    Agreed - a bit like being in a busy gym. Not a bad idea for an event, but not executed very well.

  • I have just worked out that the bikes are outside, you can see them in video 4. I think it's already happened though.

  • Guy collapsed, ambulance on its way :(

  • I don't think Tom's on until 13:30.

  • Oh dear. Are you there laner?

  • Want to be there, sounds fun, busy working though!

  • Have a nice lunch after, y'all are slackers.

  • Paramedics are working on a chap now, looks very serious defib just gone in

    I was 2nd overall after my heat, I stopped to early and I think it cost me a bike. 1.49ish time

  • :-(

    Don't take my above comments as a lack of compassion, they are unrelated to the collapsed person. Hopefully all works out well.

  • My run was scheduled at 13:10. Dude in a London Pride jersey round before seems to have had a serious failure of body and the emergency services were called. Was not looking good. Lunch breaks are only so long so I had to head back to work. Did witness a dude riding for Pearson beat Wiggo though, plenty of sub-2 times.
    Did meet up with laner, and saw chainbreaker on my way out.

  • That didn't look at all good. Here's hoping they pull through :(

  • +1. Sorry you didn't get to beat Wiggo Tom.

  • News from BikeRadar is that they didn't make it. Tragic.

    RIP

  • i really hope bike radar is wrong.

  • It really wasn't looking too great =/
    Well done to Clever Pun though a storming time and a proper good placing.

  • What? Someone died on the Wattbike???

    That's absolutely horrible.

  • ^ And there's no pun intended here, I'm genuinely shocked, before someone gets the wrong idea.

  • Bikeradar is suggesting maybe not. Internet pounces on these things super quick and there's never any real info. Wait and see I guess.

  • Well, I hope it's a false alarm!

  • oh no that's horrible.. I saw him taken out to the ambulance with an oxygen mask and defrib stickers on, I assumed that mean he'd be ok

  • Wiggins reckons he's alive, and the bikeradar thread has someone reporting that he was breathing when they took him to hospital

  • ^ Here's hoping so.

    It turns out we were in the same race Clever Pun - I was on bike 1 and a good few lengths behind you at the finish! Cheated you were.

  • illy beat Russell Downing in his heat and might be in with a shout of the Dogma
