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.
It's very simple. The first century covers the first 100 years. There's no year 0, so it covers the years 1-100.

Yes it makes sense to me just hadn't thought about it before.

In practice mostly everyone uses the 1900s, 2000s, etc. definition in day-to-day life imo.

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)

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.

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.

So, with the last WT race of the season, I'm going to give a quick break-down of all WT wins by the top-5 countries on the UCI nations ranking.
Ordering is based entirely on my own personal opinion.

BelgiumDenmarkSloveniaGreat BritainFrance
GT GC11
Monument12
One-week race GC2341
One-day race42223
GT stage108623
One-week race stage1181074
Total2822251210

I might make one for teams as well.
