Road Cycling UCI World Championships 2017


Recommended Posts

:SVK TEAM SLOVAKIA :SVK

 

Mens Elite Road Race

  • Peter Sagan  (Bora Hansgrohe)
  • Juraj Sagan  (Bora Hansgrohe)
  • Michael Kolář  (Bora Hansgrohe)
  • Erik Baška  (Bora Hansgrohe)
  • Marek Čanecký  (Amplatz-BMC)
  • Patrik Tybor  (Dukla Banská Bystrica)

 

Mens Under 23 Road Race

  • Ján Andrej Cully  (Dukla Banská Bystrica)

 

Mens Junior Road Race

  • Matej Blaško  (CYS-Peter Sagan Academy)
  • Tomáš Meriač  (CYS-Peter Sagan Academy)
  • Matúš Štoček  (CYS-Peter Sagan Academy)
  • Adam Foltán  (MŠK Žiar nad Hronom-CK)

 

Womens Elite Road Race

  • Alžbeta Pavlendová  (Dukla Bratislava)

 

Womens Junior Road Race

  • Petra Machálková  (CYS-Peter Sagan Academy)

 

So our cycling federation will send 13 athletes (6 in mens Elite, 4 in mens juniors, 1 in womens elite and 1 in womens juniors + thanks the UCI invitational wild card we added to the team also 1 participant in the Under 23 category) but all will compete only in the road races, we will not field any athlete in the Time trials events.

 

The Goal of the team is the 3rd consecutive and historic world title for Peter. It will be ofc difficult to achieve, certainly he will be the most watched rider in the peloton. but this time at least he will have 5 teammates, in the previous 2 titles he had always only two.

This is not good..

 

 

Not only exclusive rights of the road world champs (which should mean it won't be on Dutch and Belgian TV anymore, except for shitty Eurosport), but even for the cyclo-cross as well. Which is insane to think those world champs wouldn't be on Belgian TV, it's THE Belgian sport.. 

 

Edit: I missed the small letters saying in some countries it's non-exclusive, like in the Netherlands and Belgium :cheer:

Maybe if they go back to the old format and have a real, 100km TTT instead of those short events :p

    • I can finally piggyback off @vinipereira predictions to deliver my own    I'll be honest. I was rather busy during most of the awards season, so I wasn't able to see as much as I wanted to, or normally would have been able to. Therefore, I'm relying heavily on pundit predictions and general feel this time around.     If there was a category for best poster artwork, my nominees would be: Bugonia, Eddington, Dracula, The Sound of Falling, Sirāt   I'd give best animal acting to Pipa from Sirāt   And my favorite scenes from the year are... Kids getting bewitched, Weapons Gladys getting her just desserts, Weapons Car chase, One Battle After Another I Lied To You, Sinners Turn that shit up, Sirāt Playing with arrows, The Love That Remains Street dance, The Life of Chuck Cold open, Warfare Final scene, The Plague Ship prayer, The Testament of Ann Lee
    • The article literally corrects other ones claiming it will be a case. Trump isn't and won't banned.
    • Semifinals   March 15th 20:00 ET/2:00 CET:  United States vs.  Dominican Republic March 16th 20:00 ET/2:00 CET:  Venezuela vs.  Italy   *Images courtesy of Sportsnet
    • March 14th Results   Quarterfinal 3:    Puerto Rico 6-8  Italy   Highlights:       Quarterfinal 2:    Venezuela 8-5  Japan   Highlights:     Updated Bracket:
    • Btw I highly recommend the short film 'Butterfly' which has a story related to the Olympics.  
    • Once again here I am with my annual Oscar predictions post. Last year I predicted 13/23 winners which was my worst results ever by far. For the second consecutive year Brazil is nominated so I'm hoping that 'The Secret Agent' wins something, especially because it's a film from my home state. I watched 34 out of the 35 feature films (only 'Avatar: Fire and Ash' missing) and all 15 short films nominated, so I leave a personal ranking of all the categories.   ["will win" is my prediction / "could win", my alternate prediction / "should win", my personal ranking / "shoud have been nominated", a way to remember other notable work].    
    • I don't know how soon that'll be though... and until then not holding my breath. Really wanted to see Caissie crushing balls at the Olympics, he deserved it for his play this tournament, and now he might not get the opportunity to. He's still young, but this will probably be Canada's best chance, and he'll only be around for Brisbane 2032 at best considering the bids in contention for 2036.    It just sucks, constant disappointment for the Canadians this year with barely anything to cheer for, and coming so close only to come up short... I'd rather us have just lost in the group stage 
    • I think instead of allocating 2 spots here (for Americas) WBSC should have allowed 3 spots (rather than 2) in the 2027 WBSC premiere. ( 1 each for Asia, Europe & Americas)   That way it would have ensured two things : ONLY the top team from Americas gets the quota here ( deservedly so) additionally it would have allowed teams from Americas a second shot at qualification from the 2027 premieres.    Getting only 1 tournament , more than 2 years ahead of olympics is very harsh on the teams from Americas.
