Only two riders have finished all five of the last WC events. My first thought was Valverde. 2nd in my mind was someone "obscure" like Mads Pederson or Trentin. But with TNT1 mentioning Allaphillipe, he is now fairly obvious. Frosty 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, on Procyclingstats.com The points you hear about that each team/rider earns, is based on results at each event.

Frosty Posted December 11, 2021 Share Adding this here, as there isn't a dedicated thread to World Champs (all disciplines). I heard yesterday, through a Pro who does XCO, Road and TT that the UCI are planning to have a festival of World Champs in 2023 that will see Road, TT, Track, XCO and possibly DHI all competing in the same town/area within the same time period (possibly a week; two weekends) of racing. The recent Champions League on the Track had a unique 2-event format with shortened distances and races within a few hours. Made for good spectating over a short period.

That'd be interesting, possibly restrictive for host nations with that kind of cross section of disciplines. I like the format that was piloted in SA a few years back with MTB Worlds. Masters event a week or two before the Elites under the same umbrella. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspect that managing a biosecure environment is of highest priority for the Aussies, hence the geographical ring-fencing of the event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
