Grassmarket 2,749 Posted April 11, 2023 #4 Share Posted April 11, 2023 Well-trodden path from speed skating to cycling of course, but not everyone does it this way. Romanian-Canadian Olympic speed skater Alexandra Ianculescu has taken her career in a different direction, joining OnlyFans to support her bid for an appearance at the 2024 Summer Olympics. Ianculescu competed at the 2018 Winter Olympics for Romania and has since set her sights on Paris 2024 as a cyclist with Canada - and has joined the platform mainly utilized by sex workers - though it is used for other purposes - to help fund her dreams. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/othersports/article-11960651/Olympian-Alexandra-Ianculescu-turns-OnlyFans-survive-help-achieve-Paris-2024-dreams.html#comments Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rafa Maciel 1,226 Posted June 25, 2023 #6 Share Posted June 25, 2023 Just noticed this: Kaarle McCulloch to step down as GBCT women's sprint podium coach (britishcycling.org.uk) McCulloch has been a huge asset for Team GB and her departure will be a big blow for them in the run up to Paris. Since the retirement of Victoria Pendleton, we've struggled on the women's sprint side of things, but the team are in a good place for qualification and hopefully can take advantage of the home crowd to bank some big points at the world champs in Glasgow.

Missed the announcement of McCulloch's replacement last month with British Cycling opting for a safe pair of hands: Scott Pollock to return to British Cycling as women's podium sprint coach With them looking at Emma Finucane to have the potential to win 3 medals next year, it is probably one of the most important coaching decisions they will have made in a long time.

Rafa Maciel 1,226 Posted October 23, 2023 #9 Share Posted October 23, 2023 First leg of the UCI Track Champions League Track Cycling in Mallorca: Sprint Events Women's Sprint 1.) Alessa-Catriona Propster 2.) Emma Finucane The final was a repeat of the European Under-23 sprint final - both in terms of the cyclists involved and the end result. Women's Keirin 1.) Ellesse Andrews 2.) Martha Bayona 3.) Alessa-Catriona Propster Emma Finucane failed to make the final - whilst she has made great strides in the individual sprint event, her tactics in the keirin are still questionable. Would love to see Chris Hoy getting involved in the squad and helping develop her keirin racing a bit more. Men's Sprint: 1.) Harri Lavreysen 2.) Tom Derache Men's Keirin: 1.) Harri Lavreysen 2.) Kevin Quintero 3.) Matthew Richardson Endurance Events Men's Scratch 1.) Eiya Hashimoto 2.) Mark Stewart 3.) Tuur Dens Men's Elimination 1.) Dylan Bibic 2.) William Tidball 3.) Jules Hesters Women's Scratch 1.) Lily Williams 2.) Katy Archibald 3.) Maggie Coles-Lyster Women's Elimination 1.) Katy Archibald 2.) Anita Stenberg 3.) Lily Williams Archibald looked to be racing with a lot more freedom than we saw at Glasgow. Josh and maestro 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heywoodu 13,540 Posted October 31, 2023 #10 Share Posted October 31, 2023 (edited) Within now and a few minutes, Jeffrey Hoogland is going to attack Francois Pervis' 1km world record in Aguascalientes. The goal is to break Pervis' 56.303 seconds. There's a live stream here, not sure it's available outside the Netherlands. https://www.ad.nl/wielrennen/live-bekijk-de-wereldrecordpoging-van-jeffrey-hoogland-vanaf-20-45-uur-exclusief-via-onze-site~acfaf934/ Personally I find it super cool to have a record attempt for this, besides the hour records we're sort of used to, but also it's a bit sad to see this being done in some 'atmosphereless' hall with 5 people present or so By the way, Pervis himself said he thinks Hoogland can break his record by 3 seconds, which would of course be insane. Then again, it's definitely not impossible. When Pervis said his 56.3 seconds, he was usually riding times of around 1 minute on sea level. Hoogland has been consistently going far under that, even going to low 58's...on sea level. Wouldn't be shocked to see a 54.x seconds.
