Good catch - sure does.

Landis 35m58.91s 115% = 41m22s
Simoni 41m25.28s


Should have had some lead bar end plugs for weigh in.

He was probably ****** off and soft-pedaling:

12:49 PST The UCI judges have held back Gilberto Simoni due to his bike
being too light. They are still weighing it.

12:49 PST They held him back a minute and let Jason McCartney start in
front of him and now they're starting him. That means that he loses over a
minute.
