I kind of feel like women's time trials tend to be more interesting than their road races. Maybe because the vast difference of talent is not quite as prounounced there. Same goes for the whole track cycling program.

Well, both attract a wider talent pool of specialists.  Like I said, not many women are earning more than a bare living at road, most have to double up with track or cyclo.  Or jobs outside cycling.

Whatever is Grosu doing in this race?

 

Also, Louis Meintjes, also known as everyone's favorite, is here.

Grosu can suddenly do everything lately, who knows  

 

I missed it, but apparently Meintjes placed an attack in I believe the Tirreno earlier this month

DNS for Natnael Berhane  because of visa problems. Which is rather sad by itself, but even more so now: he raced just last week...in France, and now such a short bit away he can't even start.

That's not how you treat your former colonies.

Azerbaijani guy ready to make his mother proud for 25k.  Ambition is to hold on to first lap marker so there can be a screenshot of the intermediate list.
