2025 National Championships

[Boehmand]

Yes, it's kind of "mini-olympics"

It's really cool actually.

DR just suck at producing the cycling part, because they only do it twice a year, the championships and the Tour of Denmark.

TV2 is much better at cycling content.

 

[QueenStagiaire]

All hail the cheese king

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Perfect work by Decathlon.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Godon wins, meant to be leaving isn't he, good job lads.

 

[Dazed and Confused]

Godon wins in France. Great race.

 

[RedheadDane]

So... after a long wait to get the title, AG2R gets it two years in a row.

 

[Andre]

I would have preferred even De Lie in the jersey for another year

 

[Danskebjerge]

Normally I would hope for the underdog to do well, but Søren Kragh with the national champion's jersey - we won't see it much, will we?

 

[Boehmand]

Crossing the line on the bridge for the last time (before it counts), Kragh is solo in front.

Casper Pedersen is 19 seconds behind with Mads P in tow

Breiner with Philipsen in tow a further 15 seconds behind.

Nobody outside of these appear to still have a shot.

Last passing of the big hill coming up, will Mads P drop the hammer to try to catch his teammate alone?

 

[tobydawq]

Boo, Mads is giving the win to Søren Kragh.

 

[RedheadDane]

So, errr... the Belgium Federation is one of the federations with standards to how the Champion Jersey should be, right?

 

[KZD]

The way Wellens is riding, bodes well for Pogacar in the Tour. Impressive solo win today.

 

[tobydawq]

So a normal race for him.

Not really.

 

[Cycling111]

So, errr... the Belgium Federation is one of the federations with standards to how the Champion Jersey should be, right?

Yes, and France.

 

[Boehmand]

Normally I would hope for the underdog to do well, but Søren Kragh with the national champion's jersey - we won't see it much, will we?

Unless they bring him to the Tour as replacement for Geoghegan Hart

Realistically they will probably select Kämna - I would.

 

[search]

5k to go in Germany. Schiffer, Kämna, Engelhardt, Stork, Buchmann, Zimmermann are together in front.

 

[Boehmand]

Mads P staying on Casper Pedersens wheel on the big hill.

Kragh will take the Danish title.

 

[RedheadDane]

Yes, and France.

So UAE will be forced to make a Championship jersey for Wellens?

Nice of Mads to give Kragh the win.

 

[tobydawq]

Impressive that Godon and Wellens managed to cross the line in exactly the same second (at least on my screens). Good thing not both of them were a sprint.

 

[Tricycle Rider]

So, errr... the Belgium Federation is one of the federations with standards to how the Champion Jersey should be, right?

You've been watching GB for a while, any idea how many more kms to go, even just a rough guesstimate?

Sorry I'm not replying to your question, btw., just want to know what the heck is going on in GB.

 

[yaco]

is the finish in Germany flat? Englehardt is fast from this group.

Got that one wrong. Englehardt was stronger on the final climb and lost the sprint. Englehardt was tactically naive in the final 1km which cost him victory.

 

[Boehmand]

Nice of Mads to give Kragh the win.

They are close friends - Pedersen was instrumental in the team getting Kragh - his season was just ruined thus far with his ever recurring saddle sore problems.

This is a great and well deserved win

is the finish in Germany flat? Englehardt is fast from this group.

downhill until last few hundred meters, then flat with corners

 

[Samamba]

Looking good for Zimmermann

Engelhart also has a sprint tho

 

[QueenStagiaire]

Engelhardt attacked with Zimmermann on the last hill, Kämna and Schiffer just behind
