National championships June 2021

[Armchair Cyclist]

Well to the southeast of Sally Gap or Glendalough that might make it a climbers' championship, but lumpy enough. The range of abilities normally means that there is no such thing as a large group finish anyway in the Irish Championship.

 

[Zinoviev Letter]

Ryan Mullen does the TT / RR double. He’s one of the handful of WT riders, so not a huge shock, but still I think a little unexpected on the parcours.

How nice. Just a shame they don't have a sister who also rides.

Or a mother.

And Henderson takes the Elite Women's Race.

So for the guys, it was all about Hayter, and for the women, it was all about Anna.

It's all off-topic as the title thread clearly states this thread is about national championships that took place in June 2021 and currently we have October.

Yeah... I have been thinking that it sure is cold for June...

At least he has a win outside Ireland! If there was still a Tour of Ireland he’d be racking up wins.

Nice June weather over in the UK. Can't tell you how far it is, or give you any information about time gaps.

 

[wheresmybrakes]

8 Laps of circuit totaling 63 miles, the men's will be 13 laps totaling 103 miles later.

 

[RedheadDane]

So, there's a break, Henderson is up there. No glue how much time they got, or how far left they've got.

I don't think that's how you should administer glue anyway.

At the moment, it's likely the championship could have been decided on the first lap - It will be tough for the chasers.

 

[Samu Cuenca]

Alice Barnes is back in team colurs this weekend after having worn the British championship jersey in every race since the end of June 2019. I hope she retains this title, so I can still pick her out in the peloton

Henderson is the favourite now, though.

 

[RedheadDane]

Georgi, Henderson, and Lowden has a small gap.

 

[RedheadDane]

April Tacey with a good gap.

 

[RedheadDane]

She was caught going up the climb - while the cameras was focusing on the dropped A. Barnes - and Georgi took the win.

Yeah, that was Vuelta like camera work. Georgi was just too strong on the climb, I didn't think she had that much left. Great ride by Josie Nelson as well, and Drops definitely deserved their medal, too.

Would have been a bit weird if April had won a race in October anyway.

The coverage of the final climb was shocking and I hope never to be repeated -Kudos to Drops Le Col for using their numbers in the final.

 

[Samu Cuenca]

So you think she should only be allowed to win races in April?

There were more "-sons" in the top 5 here than in the Swedish NC.

She gotta make P-R her big goal!
