I was surprised by the number of mass start riders wearing the Aerohead.

Purely U.S. fandom: Gritty ride by Jen Valente to get shut out of the tempo race, then come back to both win the elimination and take a lap in the scratch race after crashing. Lambie did well to take 5th in IP - showed that his WR wasn't a total fluke. Was hoping for more out of Holloway in the men's omnium. He did OK in the elimination, but was clearly just hanging on for dear life the rest of the time.

It was nice having Vogel as a commentator. Clearly a little nervous, and not totally polished with her English, but I think she can grow into it.

it was altitude assisted; shows you how meaningful those records are. They should really have one for sea level and another for altitude

Yeah, but my point was that he showed he's still a world class IPer at any altitude. 4:12 is a big-boy time.

Edit: But I agree. Like the HUUB team is planning to go to Aguas next month specifically to break a bunch of WRs. Which, great for them. But I kind of feel like WR's other than the hour should be broken in competition, not specially curated private events (even with UCI oversight). And I'd agree for the hour too. But we should went through all the drama of consolidating the hour record. Are we going to start dicing it up again already?

Do any of you know if it's still available somewhere to watch? Was looking forward to some IP and TP but missed it on Eurosport and haven't found much on Youtube yet

Yes, it was great to see Kristina Vogel. Was a fan of hers before the accident, even more so now. Impressive woman.

Not for free, but I watched it on NBC Gold.
