Paul Groves is kindly phoning through updates as they happen. So far in the mens event we have: Vladimir Polikarpenko UKR 1:47:12, David Haines GBR 1:47:25 (successfully appealing against a DQ for having no number but getting fined instead), Leonid Ivanov RUS 1:47:33, Cedric Fleureton FRA 1:47:47 and Dmitry Gaag KAZ 1:47:58. Other GB finishers were Richard Haines in 13th, Alun Woodward in 21st, Simon Kennedy in 41st and Ed Dyer DNFed with a puncture 100m into the bike.
