p.s. and at least until 2024 (included), we will not go to outdoor venues in any case (for the World Champs)...

 

2020 = Berlin, GER

2021 = Ashgabat, TKM

2022 = Saint Quintin en Yvelines, FRA

2023 = Glasgow, SCO, GBR

2024 = Ballerup, DEN

Our favorite fans will be back in 2021 @heywoodu

Dutch teamsprinters still first in qualifying, but GB comes close again. Only 0,24 between :NED and :GBR .

At this year's WCh the gap between these teams was 1,13. GB always at their best with the Olympic Games coming .... :mad:, not really a surprise, but still annoying ...

Well, outdoor velodromes are a dying beast anyway.

 

No one is building outdoor tracks anymore.

 

Watched a film of the 1953 TdF. About half the stages finished at outdoor tracks which doubled as football or rugby stadiums.  Not many left now, I bet.

We always change the team about a lot during Years 1-3, then consolidate in Year 4 of the Olympic cycle. So that’s why we get better.

I'm so disappointed with our girls of the Team Pursuit! :mad::facepalm::wall:

they just improved marginally during these last 3 years, meanwhile many other Nations are cutting their times down by seconds from championship to championship...now we're far behind the Germans, too...:nopompom:

and in Italy someone still talk of them as medal candidates...it will be a great success should they just qualify to the Olympics...:whistle:

à l’instant, Grassmarket a dit :

Yes at some point, virtually every large stadium in the country served also a velodrome (Parc des Princes, Parc Lescure, Gerland and well Marseille's velodrome to name a few). There were hundreds of them, nowadays, there must be a dozen left.

 

Too bad, we could have used them to learn how to run a pursuit team...
