I’ve noticed that the African Nations with well-known reputations in cycling - like Eritrea, Rwanda, Ethiopia - have got riders.  Also some African riders who are probably already British citizens or residents.  But there are some nations we have had trouble with in the past where athletes have been given visas for big events and have disappeared without even competing. So if your list includes Sierra Leone, Cameroon & Nigeria....

Yeah there are apparently more Africans than I'd feared a few days ago, that's excellent news :cheer: 

If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated! Full story and how to help can be found here!

When I watched the finish live, the Dutchman won.  Apparently something happened in the meantime.

 

I saw that someone got closed against the barriers during the final sprint...probably that was judged an illegal move by the Dutch and he was DSQ...

 

and tbh, if Battistella wasn't trapped and could start his sprint finish when he actually wanted, he would have won quite easily...in the last 50m he was flying double the speed of the Dutchman...

 

p.s. it's the men's U-23 race, not the Junior's (which was raced yesterday)...;)
