- i agree that the agree that the course is a mistake and bungled opportunity to grow cycling.
having the very first World’s on the African continent is an historic landmark. the career of Bini Girmay is also an historic landmark — the first Black African to win a grand tour stage, first to win a TDF stage, first to win a one day classic, first to win the green jersey, and he’s nowhere near done yet. to design THE historic african course in a way that gives THE historic african rider no chance to win is pretty unfathomable to me. i’m not saying you need to rig the course for any rider, as if that were possible. im just that saying make it a puncheur’s course. last year was essentially a year for the climbers anyway. the World’s shouldn’t skew the same direction year after year. (it’s actually the sprinters that are owed a chance more than any other group.) rwanda should at least lean towards glasgow though, as opposed to getting HARDER than zürich. biniam should be part of the excitement leading up to the race, given that an obvious objective in bringing the event there is to grow the sport in africa. why would you negate the biggest star who can help you do that?
- This year I'm going to play/bet, will see! I'm setting my team up.
- Mr 60% should really shut up, He is already one up on Mr 60 and btw how many WC did Mr 60 win.
- She'd mentioned in her post race interview that perhaps some of the big hitters might not have been on top form because their targets were later in the season, but she did put in one hell of a ride to get that nice victory. It was good to see road racing once again.
- I think it's more because he's not a known force in one day races, plus if his plan goes well, he will have raced Dauphine, TdF and Vuelta, that's both physically and mentally very difficult
- exactly, his help was minimal.
- Reminds me of last year when Isaac del Toro attacked and won in the Tour Down Under, the first race of the year. He was a new unknown kid, but very strong, and everyone assumed it was just one of those short tv exposure stunts. But as they always say, assumption is the mother of all mess ups.
- I thought since this was the first race in the new season, everyone would come out hungry like a bear after hibernation, so I was very surprised to see Daniek making it. Apparently she's very strong, and everyone underestimated her.
- "To beat Tadej Pogacar, everything has to be right." I would disagree, to beat this new version of Pogacar something has to go wrong for him, otherwise you can do everything right and still lose
- What a miserable and useless article.
