No Wikipedia says that 1800, 1900, 2000 is part of 1800s, 1900s, 2000s but not of 19th, 20th amd 21st century.Other way around 1900s = 20th Century.
It's very simple. The first century covers the first 100 years. There's no year 0, so it covers the years 1-100.No Wikipedia says that 1800, 1900, 2000 is part of 1800s, 1900s, 2000s but not of 19th, 20th amd 21st century.
The 1900s are but 1900 itself is not.
Unless Netserk sneakily edited that page.
Yes it makes sense to me just hadn't thought about it before.It's very simple. The first century covers the first 100 years. There's no year 0, so it covers the years 1-100.
If you think you know, and want to have wealthy great grandchildren, contact your local bookmaker today.Makes you wonder who the first rider born in the 22nd century to win a grand tour will be.

This is the first year since 2018 where non of the GT winners also won the BYR competition.
2019: Bernal won the Tour
2020: Pogacar won the Tour, Geoghegan Hart won the Giro (ahead of Hindley, who was - in fact - also in the BYR competition)
2021: Bernal won the Giro, Pogacar won the Tour (ahead of Vingegaard, who was - in fact - also in the BYR competition)
2022: Evenepoel won the Vuelta (another guy in the BYR competition - Ayuso - finished third)
I'll add that Pogacar hasn't finished a one day race outside the top5 in more than one year. Last time the 2022 WC.Pogacar finished top 5 in all 5 Italian fall 1 day races this year and finished in a different position in every one completing a full set of results.

Pogacar finished top 5 in all 5 Italian fall 1 day races this year and finished in a different position in every one completing a full set of results.
His average finishing place in grand tours and major stage races is 2.3, if we ignore his neopro year its 1.8.I'll add that Pogacar hasn't finished a one day race outside the top5 in more than one year. Last time the 2022 WC.
He has grand tour finishes at all positions from 1-14. That's freaky.Like Valverde's first five Vuelta finishes.
Racing a WT race with the main team should do good to her confidence, and probably lift some pressure, too, having been under considerable spotlight, at least regionally, for some time.Safia Al Sayegh, who finally got a chance to ride for the UAE WWT team during the Tour of Chongming Island, after she's been on the team for almost two years, managed to finish 32nd on all three stages.
She had to settle for 34th in GC.
