Glad to see that although it was still an 'early' break in the US, it was composed of such quality riders! Also good to see Phinney pick up the ITT again

I wish there was a Minion in the break but it contained even stronger riders
Griffith surprises me with a third place in the TT.

Nice one Dombo, wasn't expecting much on a flat course.

As much as I like Khalilikosrohani, Nateghi should be the Iranian NC RR as he finished 2nd opposed to Khalili's 4th?

How we didn't win the Guatemalan NC is beyond me. Glad we're out of there before the locals would have lynched us.

Just seen that - call a case of trying to write the report 3 days after the race was run and me clearly not seeing the Indosat rider in the middle of the screen...

Very happy to see Hasnaoui take the National RR crown for another season. NC number 5 for us, and all come from our African nations. Question will be whether we pick up our first non-African NC in France, GB or Greece...

Yay, Nzeke is a great guy for us to wear the Cameroonian NC and rave win too, also nice we won all but one (TT) African nc we entered iirc.

Never thought i'd see Nateghi win a hilly rated NC! Quite bizarre. I think that's like our 10th NC now, i'm beginning to feel sorry for our jersey maker.

So I think Azteca is all done with NCs now, collected 7 road jerseys (a few without competition) and 4 TT jerseys (pretty sure only 1 was a competition). ... The question is how many can possibly stay on a downsizing team?

Thanks for reviving this sgdanny!
I-Gen dominating in Greece is kind of what was expected I think. Hopefully the same will happen in Portugal

This was the most important NC for us this year, and we doubles it. Thats amazing. Vlatos was always going to win, but to see Tzortzakis crown his great season says a lot. Too bad he didnt get a nomination for rider of the year.

Whilst I expected the TT to go the way of Vlatos, there was small part of me that wanted maybe an attack from my Tzortzakis to contest the RR.
Fully expected SotD's Tzortzakis to be too much of a favourite to be allowed to attacked but clearly that wasn't the case!

The search for a non-African NC goes on! It was a nice podium from Dowsett on a course that did not suit him at all.

Annoying for Diggle to miss the break but decent enough top 10 in TT at least.
