The Grand 2022 Wollongong UCI Road World Championships Thread, September 18th-25th

BTW, I was a bit sad to see that Austria was down to 0% Schweinberger already before the start of the race.

Holy rainstorm.

 

[movingtarget]

The rain is back.

 

[Hugo Koblet]

Let's hope for some of this weather for tomorrow as well!

Too bad.

They‘re just alternating between the race and sightseeing and it‘s extremely annoying to me.

 

[Sciatic]

That’s cool: rainbow bands over the rainbow jersey race

 

[DJ Sprtsch]

Enough with the scenery shots.
Think this is the absolute worst production I've witnessed. I rather have one solo camera in front for the entire race instead of this constant flicking back and forth from race to ridiculous holiday photos.
I'm upset!

 

[DNP-Old]

No orange in sight. Partly due to the lack of orange in the kit, partly due to none of them being present in the elite group.

 

[Armchair Cyclist]

Bit of a mixed message to intersperse the beach shots with slo-mo of the heavy rain.

 

[Salvarani]

Van Vleuten not winning

 

[RedheadDane]

I go to brush my teeth, and everything explodes...

 

[Sciatic]

That really blew up the race

 

[Breezy1985]

Poor Kasia always seems to end up in this spot

and the host broadcaster goes to a commercial break

And that's the great thing about non-break feeds!

Quite symbolic to see a rainbow above the World Championship.

Or it would be if the UCI WC jersey actually represented a rainbow rather than a bastardisation of the Olympic rings.

A clean mouth is overrated.

With Van Dijk pacing, you know they're going to bring them back, but question is if anyone in the group behind can follow the leading five last time up Mt. Pleasant.

 

[DNP-Old]

Niamh, whose name sounds like an F1 car speeding by, looked the strongest U23 on Mt. Pleasant. That'd be cool.

 

[Sciatic]

Chase bunch could get close to front 5, but everyone in that chase bunch was badly dropped on last time up Mt. pleasant, so hard to imagine any of them keep pace this upcoming final climb,

ed. Samu quicker!

It's called the "Rainbow Jersey" not the "Bastardisation of the Olympic Rings" jersey.

 

[Volderke]

AVV doing the work

Gianni Moscon would stop being good at world championships

 

[Volderke]

Longo borghini… no brains again.

So unpredictable that it happened on Mt. Pleasant.
