:CZE Josef Černý won the national championships in Time Trial and secured himself a spot in Tokyo for both Time Trial and Road Race. Other 2 names from :CZE will be announced after the national champs Road Race. 

 

National coach is also still considering to name Martina Sáblíková - speed skater - to compete in Tokyo in cycling as she has been proving the best performances amongst all Czech female cyclists but she is not going to participate the national championships. So we will see what the coach decides.

Does she ever ride in full road races? I’ve only ever seen her in TTs.

It's been five years or so since she competed in any 'official' road race (including ITT's), but she is a six-time winner of the double at the Czech championships: in all six years in which she won the ITT, she also won the road race :d

If he's healthy, Stybar should be the number one no-brainer for the Czechs, he's not supposed to be riding the Tour for example.

She has ridden I think 2 or 3 races this year with all best Czech female cyclists and won all. I guess she has a chance.

Josef Černý gave up the Olympics as he made a deal with he pro team to focus on Vuelta. .... For me personally it is a dissapointment. Don't remember any Czech cyclist giving up Olympics cause of focus on one of the major races. He reasoned that his contract finishes by the end of the season and during Vuelta he should fight for his contract extension. Honestly, even without Vuelta he would get a nice offer from his team or any other team anyways ....

    • I remember when I was a child and I was on holiday with my parents in Tunisia, I think in 1999? We were on a trip to the desert near the border with Algeria. The guide said something like that: Algeria is a few minutes from here but we won't go there because there is a war going on there and it's not safe.
    • Netanyahu is bad but unfortunately Hamas helps him maintain power. Every attack they make is a reinforcement of Netanyahu's rhetoric about the country's security, etc. In the fall of 2023, Netanyahu was already losing support and then suddenly a big Hamas attack on a festival near the Gaza Strip. Coincidence? It wouldn`t surprise me at all if Netanyahu knew about the plan for this attack but did nothing so that he would then have the tools to maintain his power. I also remember Ariel Sharon - he was probably even more radical than Netanyahu but he had a brain hemorrhage and fell into a coma.
    • Ah yes, post-colonial bickering never gets too old. Let me grab my popcorn!   Netanyahu is on a personal revenge mission to avenge his brother's death for his entire political life and people still act like they're surprised by his actions
    • MId-1962.  Almost all the Jews were driven out in a few days, even though they had been living there since Classical, pre-Muslim times.   Perhaps our friend could give us details of of any current Algerian plans to welcome them back, restore their property, guarantee their safety etc etc?    
    • In what year did Algeria free itself from French influence? 1960, exactly?
    • Or better, perhaps he'd like to tell us what happened to the 140,000 Jews who were living in Algeria in 1960, as against the 200 who live there now? 
    • There are still many people of Jewish origin in Central and Eastern Europe who have nothing to do with the state of Israel. What ties does Zelensky have to the state of Israel? Apart from he waś there as president of Ukraine and speaking in the Knesset? Nothing. In the power circles in Moscow there were/are many people of Jewish origin and what about that? A large part of the power apparatus of the USSR was based on Jews, especially in the years shortly after WWII.   Instead of constantly writing about Jews, would be better to tell me which country Algeria has better diplomatic relations with: Tunisia or Egypt?  
    • Handy guide for the perplexed.  
    • I`m a bit disappointed with the starts of the Italian team. I was counting on progress from last year. And here it looks like Bagnis is still very uneven. In Cortina there will be 3 competitions with medals to win and it would be a shame not to use our track to win 1-2 medals. The same goes for luge.
    • On the other hand Errani's serve doesn't make Paolini's task any easier... But Paolini is in a such good shape here, though, that I hope she wins her first title in the old Fed Cup. For Errani, it will be 4: 2009, 2010, 2013. So far, Roberta Vinci has 4 titles with Italy.
