Ideally he’d actually want a windier bike.

Hard for everyone, but he’d make up more places

Agreed I’m sure he’d want bike conditions as tough as possible

Sounds like hard swim conditions, not ideal if swim is your weakest suit, but he’ll be eating them up like Pac-man once on the bike.

Yeah hopefully there are people burning early matches on the swim, and Matt is just sticking to plan and working his way through it.

Has he got anyone on the ground call AG positions etc for him?

You can filter on the app

Edit - ignore me

This swim is taking a worryingly long time

Not sure he may be flying solo

I meant someone to say to him ‘Matt you’re 7th and 6th is 2 mins ahead but slowing’ sort of thing.

Yeah re-read your comment

I’m beginning to wonder if he’s lost his chip……

If he has then that’s not good for KQ

Hope so, in terms of taking so long, not the KQ issues

I think it must be fairly rough, I’d expect Keith Murray to be faster than 1:15

Also sometimes they don’t load the chip up properly. You have it on, but nothing registers. Mate of mine got a 3rd in AG at a 70.3, knew he was 3rd then had to watch the guy he overtook on the run go up and get his trophy .

(He wasn’t after a 70.3 Q)

I guess there are 2 timing points where we should have seen Matt- swim exit and T1 exit? So am thinking it’s not looking good for us to track him :frowning:

He’s out of the sea that is
