I don't like Nolan anymore, he fell in love with himself
Cool stuff with the interview and congrats on that win! A quite interesting race, i was pretty surprised (and happy) to see Day and Hoffman joining those crucial attacks, even though the race was rated as flat.

I'm happy with the Austrian TT-champion. Wish Schorn had defended his jersey, but you can't get everything you wish for

Nice interview with Hoffman!
I'm going to make it clear that Hoffman and Augustyn are my 2 big targets for the up and coming transfer season. I mean as a South African team we just have to have the national champ!

I might have spent too much time looking at the Nationals and then potential new riders last night.... I was genuinely having dreams about the ManGame

I'd be lying if I said I hadn't in the past.

Or not even manage to sleep... May happen again in the transfer season

I'd call those Canadian Champs a huge success! Sparling a brilliant second place and Britton a solid Top10 in the ITT.
For a small peloton (17) that was some surprisingly good AI... or at least it made it relatively interesting all the way through

With Meier, Anderson, Houle, Boily, Boivin everything but a win would have been a huge disappointment to be honest.
ITT was pretty obvious though for them.
Congrats. Two Canadian NC`s always nice to have for a Canadian team.
Though I must admit I was a bit hoping for my former rider Hesjedal to fight for it a bit more. |

Always happy when a team secures the national jersey from their respective country, congratulations to Meier and Alstom! |

Cobie! Yay she tuned in Shame Natalie couldn't find the time
Actually happy it's someone like Hristov rather than the bigger name Mihaylov or Gashev. Stefan had a great season and it allows us more flexibility in team advertising around Sofia.
Good stuff from Mihaylov in the ITT but was expecting a bigger gap. Happy to see Ahmed under a minute behind in tough conditions.
Flip side i was disappointed in Stoenchev and Aleksiev not finishing the RR, same for Gyurov. However they have been good this season so i'm not too fussed.
You better get used to this sight as i will automatically outbid anyone going after a Bulgarian. Settle in for years of single team dominance in Bulgaria... or as long as the government keeps the funding going

@Manx: Cobie alone won't do?
Would have loved to see Oz grabbing a Chinese title, unfortunately they allowed Liu to go for an uncontested win in the end.. Congrats, both Bjartne and Avin (you know the deal, don't you?)

So, like yesterday, feel free to vote for your today's highlight NC of choice, again for about two hours:
Vote for: Britain or Denmark

A very risky move by Milka there to join the breakaway.
But in the end it paid off for them. Really happy to see young former Rothaus rider Novak winning the road race. I want him back btw., Roman. |
