I’ve not caught up with the men’s CX race at Zonhoven yet but watched the full ladies race on Tiz last night.

Incredibly exciting race that had the lead swapping right to end.

Worth watching the TNT highlights to see the bonkers way they fearlessly throw themselves down the sand hills :grimacing: :oncoming_fist: :clap:

Would make an absolutely superb addition to the Winter Olympics.

Odd timing :man_shrugging:

Very.

Particularly as he’s transitioned into this super domestique role, with the chance to have a crack at his own objectives as long as they don’t affect Jonas or WvA.

Must be his last big contract too.

I think he had a year left on his contract.

I guess they gave him his race program and he decided that he didn’t fancy it?

Exactly, the long lists for the GTs are out and no opportunity by the sound of it.

I was very disappointed when I visited the clinic and seen how disinterested even the crazy people there are in everything, hardly any posts (but yes posts wondering that same point)

If a team has team tactics in a national championships they’re a loser team, good job by them making it absolutely clear they don’t.

Every man for himself in the national road race, right?

Unless the team has a particular desire to have their home national champion in the team :man_shrugging:

15th in under 30 mins for a 10k. That is seriously impressive running from Dan Martin.

Yeah, think he mostly lives there now. Spent a long time in Girona when he was racing.

I see Ving got taken out by some muppet who was trying to draft him on a training ride
