Tour of Belize Team Time Trial
No word from Kenny yet. I'm guessing he's tired, or something. Go figure :-). But Channel 5 has preliminary results on Thursday's 40K team time trial:

Woot!
Checking out those times, it appears the Tour of Belize is using a nonsense scoring system similar to what the Tour de France now does (notice that places 4-15 are all 10 seconds apart). Nice if you finish 15th, bleah if you're in the top 3. But that's just my old curmudgeonly opinion.
Nothing on the GC yet, but Bain should move up from 6th and Frank and Woody might be way up as well.
Well, OK, another update. Bain is still in 6th (keep in mind this is before today's race) but within striking distance of the podium. Frank is at 11, Woody at 12. Is this cool or what? :-)
Stay tuned.
