After Ben Healy's emergence this year, I'm going to say that the next Ben Healy has been signed by EF recently. His name is Darren Rafferty and is apparently putting out big numbers in the training lab. The next Darren Rafferty is also on the way, his 16 year old brother looks like being on the path to the pros too. While I'm at it there's also a female cyclist with a lot of promise here, winning senior races at 15 years old. Their younger sister Aliyah. Quite a family.

Sagans interview. Man dgaf I didn't see this. Did he go off on a rant, or just be as sagan-y as usual?

He didn’t pinch any bottoms but he did smoke a cigar (no, liderally) and say how chuffed he was at never having to ride the damn thing again.

Tour of Wallonie has been fun this year. Inept TT coverage - young Josh Tarling only 8 seconds behind Ganna! - and yesterdays navigation mishap…

I was just checking the dates for the different events in Glasgow. I didn't realize this was a 'Super WC'.
200 rainbow jerseys to be decided on over 10 days. That sounds pretty good. Team GB should be laying claim to a few of those, no?

I was saying in the other thread that I’m actually on holiday in Edinburgh next week and was deciding whether to go and watch the short track mountain biking (hopefully with a tom piddock appearance) or make the short trip up to Stirling to see the men’s road time trail. Annoyingly i go up the day after the men’s road race

Hayter in the Omnium, Tarling in the mens TT, Fred Wright in the road race. Those are my tips

Glasgow worlds on, speed is absolutely nuts, 49 kph average, mini attacks every 5 mins. Might be last man still alive at this rate.

At least he's still up & running. Got lucky with the bike not getting too damaged.
14km to go.
😬🤐

The Ineos squad is rapidly thinning with TGH going to Lidl-Trek. Pidcock racing in the MTB this evening (1745). I thought MvdP was going to race but appears to have withdrawn.
Edit: I do not see Pidders... Oh, now I do. Quite far back, though its early doors, and I've seen him hammer the last few laps.

It’s great that, Irn Bru gets a thumbs up 😄 MvdP was down to do the short track, trying to get UCI points, hopefully will do the Sat cross country still as that’s enough. Pidcock is always last row as he doesn’t turn up enough.
