Three things I all find pretty cool
-
Well in that case I think if she gets a top-10, she doesn't need anything else. If it's lower, there's some more results involved like top-8 in a World Cup or something.
-
No idea where I said or even suggested that, no. I'm just reacting to someone mentioning some reasons and this specific one seems like a pretty odd reason. No event can ever change the 'traditional timing and schedule' (whatever that may be)?
-
'Messing' with 'traditional timing and schedule' seems a bit of an odd reason not to grant hosting rights, to put it mildly.
-
I have no idea, once again our NOC has termed it's rules in pretty vague wordings. https://www.nocnsf.nl/tokyo2020/kwalificatie-eisen @Jinzha @CCB Any clue?
-
Yeah.....the time zone has not much to do with it
-
Dygert destroyed even that.
-
Told you Van Vleuten could easily lose this
-
Almost I check my boarding pass and passport more or less once every three minutes once I'm really getting ready to leave, so no worries Now I'm hoping for WiFi in the plane, in that case I can spend a good part of the 12 hours watching the men's time trial (if Eurosport Player and/or NOS app work in, I don't know, international airspace?)
-
Fun fact for all the Dygert fans: she has publicly stated she's going for (gold in) six Olympics, so her plan is to continue until 2040!
-
Dutch commentator when they showed Van Vleuten after 12km or so: "She's 15 seconds ahead of Amaliusik, so she's going pretty well too." Meanwhile we had already seen Dygert was something like 65 years ahead of Amaliusik.
-
That's being decided today?
-
The women's time trial has been decided by more than a minute only once: in 1995, the second time it was held, Jeannie Longo beat eventual speed skater Clara Hughes by 1:11 minutes.
-
Van Vleuten just didn't spend enough time on the remote volcano she likes so much
-
Can we do the Olympic time trial on Sunday?
-
Or the person reading it is not paying enough attention My bad
-
This is also going to make people so hilariously mad
-
Why would they not nominate any female cyclist?
-
2012 (Judith Arndt) was the last time the winning woman had a faster average speed than the winning junior boy. https://www.procyclingstats.com/race/world-championship-itt-we/2012/results
-
This is one of the most bizarre bits of time trial riding I can remember in ever seeing in my life
-
If you have to compete very late, it's not a bad idea to train very late as well.
-
You mean this?
-
I don't need to see Van der Breggen on the podium anyway so fine with that
-
These conditions are perfect for weird results, so it wouldn't be too terribly surprising if something weird happens. However, if she doesn't mess up in one way or another, I really with the very best will in the world can't see Van Vleuten lose. That'd be a major, major surprise.

May I recommend you a good pair of glasses, good Sir?
