World Championships 2023: Women's TT (August 10)

[Samu Cuenca]

Will Milesi hurt Guazzini if she doesn't get a medal?

 

[RedheadDane]

Dear God, Dutch commentator Roxane Knetemann saying there's probably something wrong with Reusser's bike... she's so dumb.

Is she not aware they have spare bikes?

Will Milesi hurt Guazzini if she doesn't get a medal?

NO! He'll hug her.

Is she not aware they have spare bikes?

She's a former pro rider... but she's talking all the time so she has little time to think.

 

[King Boonen]

Vollering currently 4th at the finish.

 

[theyoungest]

At least Vollering has the fastest time on the climb.

 

[King Boonen]

Made up 20 seconds between T3 and the finish.

I don't really mind the "two races in one" approach, but the UCI should definitely find a better way to highlight the U23s.

In the elite category, it looks like Schweinberger may win a medal today. That's a bit crazy.

 

[Red Rick]

Vollering went for the Strava QoM

Henderson provisional sliver. Great ride.

Not got good enough signal to watch pictures live, but was she riding in a more fluid efficient style, or was it her normal seems to be fighting the bike all the time style ?

 

[Izzyeviel]

Coz you're losing!
I, otoh, am fighting for a podium.

This is why I tell people to go outside, turn around 10 times & spit.

Poor woman. She was motoring her way to a medal when you decided to curse her

I need to find some major cycling nation with a worse medal record than Austrian women recently, so I can make fun of them.

From the bits I saw she looked pretty fluid and on top of the gear. Maybe had more time to ride the course and work out the gearing?

When did Ruesser crash?

 

[Samu Cuenca]

When did Ruesser crash?

In the mixed relay the other day.

 

[King Boonen]

When did Ruesser crash?

Mixed relay.

 

[awavey]

I know they like to get the “up close and personal” shots of top finishers just after the line, but perhaps cut away when, for instance with Dygart, she looks like she’s about to vomit?

Is she still getting cramps in that leg muscle and an ice pack ? she looks spent after most races thesedays.

Mixed Relay 2 days ago

 

[King Boonen]

Brown made up 6 seconds on Dygert at T3.

 

[Red Rick]

Brown took back 6s. If she does the fastest final split she may actually do it

 

[Samu Cuenca]

Brown's taken back 5 seconds, but she has to climb faster than Vollering to win.

 

[Samu Cuenca]

Neben's about to get the O43 jersey.

Mixed relay.

In the mixed relay the other day.

What's the point of the mix relay? It's only purpose seems to be giving riders crashes before their big objectives later in the week, and I don't think I'm a unique in not watching or following it, and therefore being totally unaware that reusser crashed. Its a mickey mouse gimmick?

half a minute or so off the medals. She's starting to get old

The purpose of the race is to make Reusser and Küng world champions, because they'll continue to mess up in the ITT 😉
