About all I know for sure is that there will be 3 on the podium[emoji12]

 

Nino is obviously clear favourite.. but on the day anything can happen.. plenty youngsters coming up that are really strong and very capable.

 

Shall we get our predictions in by 13:00?

No... not that. chances of Sagan on the podium is very very small..

 

Gold is pretty much Nino's to lose..(going on his performances this year.. especially the manner in which he won worlds)

 

It's silver and Bronze I am battling with, Kulhavy we all know how powerful he is, but he hasn't had the greatest season, that broken wrist really effective his season and prep..

 

ABSALON..I don't know yes of course very strong no doubt, I think we will see that young Czech Ondrei Cinzk mixing it up in the front. And so too Tempier.

 

Then of course there are the u23 kids.. oh man.. so many that can do great things.

 

 

Edit

 

 

PS forgot.

 

Sagan to give the best tailwhip and wheelie on the day[emoji106]

True, but I'm hoping his form was only due to him peaking at Olympics.

I think Langvad will tough this one out for the win, would love to see Batty & Rissveds battle for the podium too...

Men:

1) Nino

2) Jaro

3) Simon

 

Ladies

1) Annika

2) Jenny

3) Gunn-Rita

 

Goodness, this could be wide open in both mens and ladies. Women's race will be exciting with the Batty, Pendrel, Neff, Prevot all in with a chance. In the men I reckon a few strong u23 from 4-8 place.
