:HUN Blanka Vas in 10th place. Wasn't she supposed to be the new phenom like some predicted in Tokyo? :mumble:

As I’ve said on cycling threads, she has got stuck riding as a domestique for the big :ITA & :NED riders, so is not developing.  And then people wonder why so many women cyclists retire at age 25.

MB is her secondary discipline now, with road cycling being her first. Which is good in terms of earning money, but obviously it's harder to win a medal in the road race.

Not entirely done yet....Batten went through the feeding/technical zone without taking anything like a bottle, which isn't allowed. Dutch team is considering whether or not they'll protest and want to get a medal in this way.

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!
