World Championships 2024 - Men’s TT, September 22

[Tim Cahill]

Cycling needs a few comically oversized big strong dumb kids like Tarling, he reminds me a bit of John Coffey from Green Mile, if he was just some white boy from Wales.

 

[QueenStagiaire]

Can confirm, this is true

On a serious note, the Sechseläutenplatz is named after the Sechseläuten spring celebration, which is called that because in the 16th century the second largest bell of the church always rang (läuten) at six in the summer to announce the end of the working day, as opposed to at five in the winter.

 

[Samamba]

did Sheffield crash again? He lost 40s to Asgreen between Int 2 and 3

Asgreen is winning a lot on everyone so no

 

[Salvarani]

6,7 seconds

 

[Tricycle Rider]

Remco flying

 

[KZD]

Ganna + 6 s
Tarling + 12 s
Küng + 21 s
Vine + 22 s

Why Roglic ? Surely you are going to be helping Pogacar get the triple crown ?
Why ride here when you cant win

He doesn't strike me as dumb

 

[AmRacer]

If Remco wins, how will he paint the bike?

Rainbow with 5 rings

He doesn't strike me as dumb

Not necessarily his interviews, but the car holding in Roubaix came to mind

 

[Samu Cuenca]

If Remco wins, how will he paint the bike?

I think people will do it for him.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Affini's likely 6th or 7th will be forever adorned with an asterisk of shame.

 

[Tricycle Rider]

Affini in the lead for now, the Darth Vader helmet must have helped.

 

[Didinho]

Just tuned in. Anything happened on the steep descent?

The climbing part looks pretty hard after going 54 on the first part.

 

[Netserk]

Yay, Jay!

 

[Tim Cahill]

Kung's race number is slipping around a little bit again, honestly had enough of this, there needs to be fines, and, failing that, public executions.

 

[Tricycle Rider]

Come on, Jay!

 

[Tim Cahill]

Ganna catching Roglic would be quite funny, unfortunately we have this climb

 

[pastronef]

Affini's likely 6th or 7th will be forever adorned with an asterisk of shame.

why?

 

[Salvarani]

Vine gone crazy on that climb

 

[Tim Cahill]

why?

Car behind moto in front way too close, though admittedly not his fault

 

[kingjr]

Affini outclimbs Küng

 

[Devil's Elbow]

There go the Swiss medal hopes.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Vine's climb super fast, fortunately for his rivals there is also a 'going down' part of the course.
