The Olympic Road Race 2016. Rio de Janeiro. 253km

[woodburn]

Have to imagine it all comes back on the first lap of the second loop but forcing some leaders to waste energy early.

It is coming back together

This is going to be hurting a lot of riders. Difficult to see the pure climbers coping well with all these changes of pace.

Wellens dropped?

Now they are right yes, but you do remember the previous races don't you? The critism wasn't that strange.

Actually it was Cummings who set the furious pace on the climb. He's very strong

This is a totally different race from London though, and a different captain. It's at least not as bad a strategy as 2012, maybe even a decent one.

That was the 2nd time they changed to another event directly before the cobbles. Those guys are so incredibly stupid.

 

[Pharazon]

Cummings going...
