FootballingCyclist Posted August 12, 2021 Share Can't find a thread on this, So thought I'd start one, Mods please join the 2 if there is one. So here is the SA team. https://www.cyclingsa.com/2021-uci-road-world-championships-team-announcement/ Kinda feel for Kent Main(Unless he made himself unavailable), But he is the 2nd ranked rider on the African Continent in terms of UCI Points only behind Ryan Gibbons and he hasn't gotten the call up.

FondTF2 Posted August 13, 2021 Share One also has to take into consideration the course profile. World champs is more suited to your classics style rider. That said, being a one day event, anything can happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
