World Championships 2024: Men's Road Race (September 29)

[scribers]

What a race. Extremely tense for almost half the race

[Rollthedice]

Pog takes his helmet off, not one drop of sweat, then pours some water on his head to look wasted for the photographers.

 

[perico]

Where is roglic

Enric Más is satisfied. He has finally vanquished Roglic in something.

 

[Moose McKnuckles]

That's a nice bottle of Clase Azul right there.

 

[noob]

I personally don't think this is boring but I get why a lot of people do.
He is certainly the best right now and deserves this, whether it's entertaining or not.

As fun as Armstrong

 

[Scarponi]

You must have missed it, but he came back after the break went and was only dropped after about 90 k

POG deserves it, I stand corrected

What a race. Extremely tense for almost half the race

Yes, in retrospect Pog basically held a 50sec gap for 100km.

Looked dicey near the end but he recovered.

 

[gunara]

Lmao when did BoC attack

People always missed his attacks no matter how clear they are.

Amazing ride by Skujins.

But yeah, it's the age of Tadej, he needs to do this at least once

 

[QueenStagiaire]

Pure hubris attack, total luckbox that Evenepoel was complete ***. Outcome never a moment in doubt, just like every major race.

Did you know that Remco was gonna be shite or how does this work? Like either the others didn‘t have the legs or he was unbeatable anyway.

 

[Andre]

Pog will ride back 260 kilometers back now...he needs the training for La Lombardia.

 

[The fridge in the blue trees]

Never thought that could work.

Still don't think it can work, attack at 100km from the end on this course. Can't work.

 

[Tricycle Rider]

Props to O'Connor and MvdP!

 

[Izzyeviel]

My work here is done.

Who had Pogacar being the next Stephen Roche?

 

[E_F_]

Never thought that could work.

Still don't think it can work, attack at 100km from the end on this course. Can't work.

We're through the looking glass.

 

[Danskebjerge]

Men's cycling is like women's cycling five years ago. So predictable and no suspense.

 

[jmdirt]

WOW! TP! What a racer, what a season!

As I've typed many times, I love it when a races just TAKES the race...my race!

I've only read the live feed here on CN, but will hopefully be able to catch a feed soon. It sounds like, TP was TP, but also it sounds like there was some 'odd' tactics.

 

[Nick2413]

This was technically recorded as a 51k solo

 

[Miha81]

Triple crown after 37 years. At least he admited attack was kinda stupid 🤣🤣😂

 

[benzwire]

The last TdF winner to win Worlds in the same year was Greg LeMond in 1989, no?
Seems like a lifetime ago.

 

[tobydawq]

This was technically recorded as a 51k solo

Mou said 52 on Twitter this whole week.

 

[RedheadDane]

Pogacar winning:
Pogacar seeing Urska:

Ever since 2014, at least one rider on the podium has had a name starting with 'M'.
Good thing Tadej didn't have to change his name to 'Madej'.

 

[slim charles]

As fun as Armstrong

Fun is subjective. I thought the race was very tense for hours, essentially. I'm not saying it's the best race ever, but I didn't find it boring, there is obviously a lot of middle ground between those two extremes.

 

[Jack_89]

Instead of focusing on the fact that he was going into the red, imagine what would have been if he had waited until the last 2 laps. 🫣

another lame ass one day race
