wow, she just smoked Brennauer...

 

[RedheadDane]

Dygert-Owen is pretty good.

 

[King Boonen]

Watching riders on the initial cobbled roll out looking like Bambi venturing onto the ice...

Danish Commentator: Dygert is playing PacMan with the other riders. She eats them one-by-one, as if they were cheese!

Also… did she borrow some shoe covers from the EF team?

 

[JosephK]

Dygert's time at the split . . . was she averaging 44+ km per hour?

Did Bussi's saddle slip? Or was she just completely empty?

 

[glassmoon]

wow, how would dygert placed in u23 men race

 

[DNP-Old]

The moustache is getting a beating.

 

[DNP-Old]

wow, how would dygert placed in u23 men race

She was on par with Norsgaard at the intermediate who finished 4th. However, this morning the weather conditions were of course much, much, much worse.

 

[Sestriere]

Holy ***, what a domination!

 

[Lemonbaloon]

This has to be one of the most brutal KO's in modern sport history?

 

[DNP-Old]

She would've been 12th with the U23's.

 

[sir fly]

I'd say there's no point getting wet anymore.
Everybody can pack and head toward hotels.

Impressive performance by Dygert.

 

[JosephK]

It's over before it's over.

 

[jaylew]

If she wasn't already, she's definitely back now.

 

[DNP-Old]

Kuwait finished a very solid 20 minutes and 29 seconds down to Dygert.

 

[Logic-is-your-friend]

Well, that was unexpected.

 

[JosephK]

Van Vleuten is amazing and a great world champion, but she'll be doing great to take 2nd place today.

 

[Pantani_lives]

Indurain is back, disguised as an American woman.

 

[JosephK]

If Chloe Dygert had raced in the U-23 men's ITT (and she is just 22), she would have beaten most of the guys!

 

[yaco]

Reckon AVV rode around one minute slower than expected - Even then she would be a minute behind Dygert - This was the 2018 Track Individual Pursuit revisited.

 

[Brullnux]

If Chloe Dygert had raced in the U-23 men's ITT (and she is just 22), she would have beaten most of the guys!

She would've come 12th, beating Marc Hirschi which is just,,,, wow

 

[F_Cance]

If Chloe Dygert had raced in the U-23 men's ITT (and she is just 22), she would have beaten most of the guys!

11th place. Last year AvVs time was good enough for 37th. in the men u23 ITT

 

[Brullnux]

Ignoring endurance and length of races, do some women have the w/kg to ride in the world tour? Van Vleuten did 5.8 for half an hour didn't she? And then this is better than some male world tour (or at least pro conti) riders in the u23 equivalent
