Great effort from Trinca Colonel who has taken great steps forward this year in a barren season for Liv Alula. I already have her pencilled in for the UAE Tour in 2026.

You are asking tactical astuteness of a rider in a Movistar jersey.
Much like their mens' equivalent they are capable of great bits of tactical riding, but it's more common to see madness. Lippert to Movistar has been a fantastic transfer in terms of her skillset and attitude allied to the often aggressive but sometimes questionable calls coming from the team car.
Sad but expected news. I still have not gotten over the way Frain mowed her down in tdff.

Just got back from my 6h ride to Namur and back. Beautiful scenery on the citadel. The climb was harder than I thought. And a lot of wind the whole day.
Shari Bossuyt already winning again. Really strong on the climb and sprint. So happy for her.

A few other people and I are watching the Gatineau ITT live on FB. The start list is even worse than usual, which probably has something to do with the WC in Rwanda. Visma, which has been given the abbreviation TEA in the on screen graphics, is the only European team to take part. It should be an easy win for Lieke Nooijen in this field, but it will be interesting to see if US champion Emily Ehrlich, who finished third in 2023, can give her a run for the money. Nooijen's teammate Margaux Vigié is currently in the lead.

The road race was even more of a nailbiter. What the hell are Visma doing there? Collecting UCI points?A few other people and I are watching the Gatineau ITT live on FB.

I watched this today in Gatineau and by lap four half the “peloton” were Visma riders. Pretty sure they took it easy after that but still managed a nice 1-2-3! I also wondered why they are here… Lovely spot to watch a race though
Liv Alula Jayco rode the race in 2024. I suspect the organisers have a deal for one WT team to attend each season.

Emilia Donne takes place this morning, but as usual without TV broadcast. The inclusion of the Monte Calvo could have more impact among the women than the men.
It's the first race in rainbow for Vallieres, but she's up against (most) of the best non-Europeans/non-EC selected riders. Patiño would have won if they had raced it yesterday.

Decent performance in rainbows for Vallieres. Isabella Holmgren also with one of her best one-day results on a road bike.
Holmgren did a lot of work in the finale for NFB and still managed to beat most of the group. Really strong ride.
I think Kim LeCourt really needs to change the National Champions Jersey, it was quite confusing with her, Vallieres and Moolman-Pasio in the group today. With the Rainbow helmet, Le Court still looks more like the World Champion than the actual Champion. Change the stripes to vertical or something that differentiates it from the World Champion Jersey.

The GP Ciudad de Eibar has just started. The start list is sadly not great due to the other races that have taken part this weekend. We all remember the incredible Laboral Kutxa 1-2 from last year with Blanco and Ostolaza and the latter could very well be stepping up to the top spot on the podium this time around.
In addition to having been moved to the last part of the season, the route has been changed once again and now features Ixua from the easier side as the final climb followed by the tricky descent into Eibar.
This will be the last race day in Ane Santesteban's career after she announced her retirement earlier this week. While she has shown good from in glimpses during the past two seasons injury has kept her from performing at her very best and have ultimately resulted in her decision to call it quits 12 months before originally intended.

A shame that we lose Ane, but after a 15+ year career and with her only victory coming in 2013, reaching her mid 30s with injuries piling up, it felt like it was nearing inevitability.

The race has been neutralised for quite some time due to a collapsed road in the area, but they are on their bikes again now with 66 km left, if the route doesn't have to be altered. It's a cold and rainy day so I don't exactly envy the riders.

The tough part of the climb is still to come, but they won't win if they don't catch Williams before top.

Noemie Thomson from DAS-Hutchinson is doing a great job of reeling Silvestri back in, but Ostolaza will probably counter soon.
And she did.
And she did.

I look away for two seconds and then this happens. Fortunately Silvestri was able to save the day for the team. They should sign Thomson after this.

I thought it was a one-day race, but it turns out it's got multiple stages (terrible joke).
