As per the website: “The route and race information for the Men Elite Road Race at the 2023 UCI Cycling World Championships.”
Here’s to hoping we see some excitement today!
Race interrupted by a protest- long break.
My goodness, what a race!!!
Had to talk about it. Not sharing the name of the rider who won but just wanted to natter hehehe

A day later and I still can’t believe that race! Who slips and falls, breaks half his shoe and then continues to go so fast in the last two rounds that he’s an extra minute ahead of everyone else. What a guy, it’s been 38 years since my country won a rainbow jersey. We came close several times but this…
I mean! Who uses the Tour de France as a training ride??? He did! Unbelievable!
I know there were some comaplints about the course but from a spectators perspective I cannot emphasise enough how great this was to watch. I’ve seen a lot of live racing but this was by far the best even with dodgy weather. The looping course meant there were places where, with minimal movement, you could see the riders pass 3 times each lap. The cornering and climbing were just spectacular.
