2025 National Championships

[Samu Cuenca]

Rubio tried a long sprint, but he's no Gaviria.

 

[Netserk]

I guess he will have a mostly white jersey?

 

[Escarabajo]

No contest. Confidence level high. Happy for him. He won easily!

 

[Coffeeplanter]

I guess he will have a mostly white jersey?

They gave him this monstrosity a few years back, which will most likely be the blueprint again.

 

[Tim Cahill]

 

[Netserk]

Froome almost caught him?

 

[Escarabajo]

I guess he will have a mostly white jersey?

It will be good for him, so he can cover the salt. Those INEOS shirts are very visual with the salt saturation!

 

[Netserk]

They gave him this monstrosity a few years back, which will most likely be the blueprint again.

That's what I fear.

 

[Red Rick]

Dutch RR was supposed to be in Berg en Dal, one of the only places you can make a decent course outsdie of Limburg, but it looks like the RR isn't happening or is gonna be moved to some VAMberg circuit

 

[GenericBoonenFan]

Don't ask me if Hatherly won the NC, I'm still in Daniyal

 

[Escarabajo]

They gave him this monstrosity a few years back, which will most likely be the blueprint again.

They have adjusted the jerseys since then. Now is mostly white with small stripes.

 

[Wvv]

Bernal winning this must be one of the more universally popular victories I can think of.

True. Very happy for him.

 

[Ilmaestro99]

Hopefully doing the Giro where he can win some stages and they aren't doing ludicrous climbing demonstrations sprinting up 40 minute HC cols.

No word on which GT he will target, but he will start his European season in one week after these national championship victories

[Armchair Cyclist]

Very easily decipherable message

I never understood why any font designer thought it acceptable to make upper case i look the same as lower case l.

 

[AupaPyama]

Also curious about the Uruguay NC jersey with Caja Rural! After the Mongolian and Guatamaleek jersey another rare one .

 

[Potomac]

USA championships are coming soon

The only WT riders I see registered for the road race are
Artem Shmidt
Andrew August
Colby Simmons
Quin Simmons

and only Artem Schmidt for the TT

I wonder if there will be many last minute registrations.

There's only three US riders in the Giro, so we can't blame the calendar too much.

Huh? Apparently the Danish Junior Championships - ITT - were today.

They were won by Johan Eltoft and Ida Dam Fialla respectively.

Lilly finished 10th in the WJ race and Stitz was 64th in the MJ.

 

[Potomac]

Ashlin Barry wins USA men's junior ITT

 

[Potomac]

Shmidt wins USA mens ITT

 

[RedheadDane]

I guess McNulty was pretty happy both the ITTs in the Giro were before the US NC.

 

[Devil's Elbow]

I remain of the opinion that the USA (and Canada) nationals should be grouped with Québec and Montreal. This time of year almost everyone is either at the Giro or at altitude, and even without that it's just not very attractive to jet around half the world for one race.

They definitely need to change something, yeah. May seems to work out even worse than June used to.

Doesn't make much sense to hold a "Pro Road Championship" with only one pro at the start. At least he won. Just.

For a long time weren't they held in September?

 

[Netserk]

Before 2011, yes. Tour of Cali was moved to May in 2010, so I think that was the reason for the nationals to move the year after.
