2010 National Championships: The Best Results List In Existence
by Phil H. on Jun 28, 2010 1:18 AM EDT
Email
Print[Update] Bumped up since most of the races are in the books.
We have come to one of my favorite weeks of the year: National Champ week! I love tracking results for dozens of races on that Sunday. I love how unique these races are, teams up to 20 men large or composed of only 1 rider. It's always fun to find out who will be wearing the national kits for the next 12 months. So lets follow the races and list the results here for this next week. Please rec the post so it can stay on the side bar throughout the weekend. The time trials begin on Wednesday while the first road race is on Friday with the most being Sunday. I copied the countries who have races this week from CQ, not every country also has a TT this week. Please tell me if I have missed a country. Let the action begin!

Canadian nationals are here in Edmonton
… too bad my only opportunity to go on a holiday this summer came at the same time and we won’t be here :-(. They’re using the same course as the 1978 Commonwealth Games, which is similar to the course used for the World Cup/World Championship triathlons held here but with an extra climby bit.
Can someone explain the team aspect to these races
Do the favorites recruit guys to help them? Is it along pro-team alliances? Friendships?
I hate mountain lions. -me
In Sweden pros usually ride for their old clubs from the youth days
and/or their hometown club. Don’t really know how thrilled the domestic riders are to work for a guy who rides with them one day/year? Never heard any complaining about it though.
Don't think it's a problem at the moment
Except for Thomas Lövkvist. He’s racing for Team Cykelcity, and they’re competetive already without him. Though I can’t find him on the startlist, but it’s from last week so it might be open for additions.
Jonas Ljungblad and Gustav Larsson are the only riders on Hammarö CK, doubt they will give each other that much help. Fredrik Kessiakoff is the only rider on Skara CK.

5 recs and a Fanpost gets pushed to the top of the list
5 recs on a comment and it gets highlighted in green so it stands out.
Pins it to the top of the FanPosts section, where it says "Recommended FanPosts."
That way it doesn’t fall off the bottom of the page as other fanposts get added.

Southern Hemisphere
It is interesting to find Brazil & Venezuela on the list. One would think that they, like most Southern Hemisphere nations would have their national championships during their summers instead of their “winters”.

yeah
though I wonder, are a lot of guys racing in the northern hemisphere against guys who peak in the March-August window? If so then they have to too. Anyway, it’s not like they’re indoors in July because it’s snowing.

Of course the part of Brazil that is above the equator is so tropical, that hemisphere doesn’t really matter in regards to this.
A friend in Sao Paolo has been complaining that it is really cold down there now. It was like 60 F the other day; she is getting ready for snow ;-)

I lived in Benin (West Africa) for awhile
People in my town would have be wrapped up and freezing when it was 80 F. The combination of a breeze and low humidity during a certain season (they have no winter, they just have a dry, breezy season) was just too much for everyone.
the part of Brazil on the northern hemisphere is mostly jungle
and a couple of big cities :)

ah, crap, contador won't defend the spanish national time trial... he has the flu
"Wizard's first rule. People are stupid. They will believe anything they want to be true or fear to be true." -- Terry Goodkind
Keeping his Tour opponents guessing, or just being extra cautious?
Cerca la qualita in Giro
If he actually has flu, it can be very debilitating
and would be bad news for his Tour fitness. But what most people call flu usually isn’t (in English, anyway—I have no idea if that’s also true in Spanish).

i think something was lost in translation
no estoy en condiciones (de defender el título)
I am not able (to defend the title)
how they get the flu from that is beyond me. the boy is hosting a mini-training camp with a select few (noval, navarro, tiralong, periero, dlf, jesus) in madrid for a few days. he’s still out doing 4-6 hour training rides.
"Wizard's first rule. People are stupid. They will believe anything they want to be true or fear to be true." -- Terry Goodkind
"i am not able"
is a pitiful translation. “No estoy en condiciones” is obviously “I’m not in condition.” Could be he’s not in condition because of the flu or he’s just not in form.
He's the one who says he has the flu:
“Es una auténtica pena, pero no voy a poder asistir al Campeonato de España porque estoy pasando un pequeño proceso gripal. Habría querido defender el maillot, pero desgraciadamente no estoy en condiciones y contra esto no se puede hacer nada”, dijo ayer Alberto Contador
link
According to other stories, he started showing symptoms on Saturday. If he’s training through it, he’s either not listening to his doctors or it isn’t really flu—possibly a summer cold or ‘stomach flu’ (which has nothing to do with influenza).

Use Wide format to see table right
Great job! Just a note – if the table looks screwed up – make sure you are in “wide” format for Podium Cafe, which you can find on the upper right of the page under the search box.
On narrow things are all messed up for me.
Hmm
outside if the Time in Time Trial being on the left of the table the narrow format looks OK on my screen, lemme see if I can fix that.

That being said, in Sweden a few years ago an ex-cross country skiier won the bronze medal. Granted, it was a year without top riders and he was a hobby triathlete. And when I looked through the startlist for this year, I found one rower, one former biathlete and a 3 time winner of Vasaloppet (very long cross country ski race).

estonia's itt takes place on friday (06.25).
last month, taaramäe decided not to defend his jerseys.
He didn't decide he wasn't allowed..
Or that’s what I heard.. The team couldn’t afford another year not in the Cofidis colors but in the colors of Estonia…
if that's truly the case
then perhaps he eventually needs to find another kit altogether. like, from another team.
give him a blue/black/white bike and just stripes on the cofidis kit, like av's condiment bike and stripes on the cde kit when he won the spanish road race (2008/2009)

Why would anyone complain about her being in the peloton? She's inspiring (and ass kicking) - I love her quote at the end!
Longo’s presence in the women’s cycling peloton, whose average age is usually half her own, has on occasion prompted the odd grumble.
However the Frenchwoman known for her no-nonsense attitude has always defended her right to compete, no matter what her age.
That belief was vindicated Thursday, when, asked why her rivals could not match up, she suggested they "hadn’t done enough specific training. I’m sorry to say it, but they need to go back to the drawing board on a few things."

When will the question "Is she the best cyclist of all time?" stop being asked.
31 years and 36 national and world track, road and time trial championships should be an obvious answer.
Bicycling is the nearest approximation I know to the flight of birds. Louis J. Helle, Jr.
That should be 57 national titles and many more world titles.

Is it true that in France Chavanel lost to Vogondy!?
Russian Vladimir Karpets is not only known for his mullet but also for his radical facial hair; he is not known for much else.

Big surprise...
Saxo swept the Danish time trial podium: Fuglsang; Rasmussen; Mørkøv; former champion Ytiing Bak was seventh.
The team also owns the Polish time trial title with Jaroslaw Marycz so how many more titles will the team get?

yes. lulu. see, jjy, i told ya to have faith. now, will he go av's tasteful route with the condiment bike and the standard cde kit?
"Wizard's first rule. People are stupid. They will believe anything they want to be true or fear to be true." -- Terry Goodkind
AV?
When was he TT champ?
It’s so stupid I’m speechless--Fabian Cancellara, on claims that he rode a motorized bike in the classics
not tt champ. when av was the spanish road race champ in 2008/2009.
all he had was the strips on the standard cde kit sleeves and collar. and, of course, the condiment bike.
"Wizard's first rule. People are stupid. They will believe anything they want to be true or fear to be true." -- Terry Goodkind
So not really comparable, unless Lulu also wins the road race on Sunday.
Valverde’s RR champ kit was definitely understated compared to Plaza this year, but he had a bit more yellow/red than you describe.
It’s so stupid I’m speechless--Fabian Cancellara, on claims that he rode a motorized bike in the classics
i didn't say they were comparable. i pondered if lulu was going the understated route, as opposed to the all out orange and yellow route as previous spanish tt champs did (see jiggy and conta; also jrod for the road race)
"Wizard's first rule. People are stupid. They will believe anything they want to be true or fear to be true." -- Terry Goodkind
Whatever happens it will totally match the yellow shoes that Lulu hearts.

Kinda O/T since it isn't elite men but Andrew Talansky won the U23 men's TT the other day
and he has a contract all lined up for 2011 for Garmin. Kid has been pretty dominate over in Europe this year so good things are expected from him
Tommeke!, Tommeke!, Tommeke!, Tommeke!
talansky is a huge talent and extremely focused on getting there
His mental strength might actually be even stronger than his physical talents.
Yeah, usually guys who go pro early and then go back to being amateur don't always pan out well
but he does seem focused.

Next year's rule that the top 17 teams in the World Ranking are guaranteed invites to major events is really going to shake things up, isn't it?
I just checked when the Giro team announcement was this year, and it was March 22. If that rule had been in effect this year, they would have had to use the rankings from March 15*. March 15! The season has barely begun. Teams will have to win early and often to get a guaranteed invite, and/or the Giro will have to shift the announcement of teams to later—but not by much, because the teams need time to prepare.
*just possibly March 22, if they had figured every possible contingency beforehand and knew exactly which wildcards they would invite. But either way, it’s waaaaaay early in the season.
It’s so stupid I’m speechless--Fabian Cancellara, on claims that he rode a motorized bike in the classics
That would benefit Italian conti teams
with T-A and a whole bunch of smaller Italian races(will those count next year?). But that does seem awfully early.

So that the best Italian team automatically gets a Giro invitation the year after. Don’t know where ISD is in the ranking though.

Marc de Maar wins TT Dutch Antilles
Up for RR tomorrow. He says he wants to give cycling on the island a boost. I say that’s total bullocks. Only 130.000 people on Curaçao so the potential isn’t enormous. And one would think that something like the Amstel Race Curaçao is already quite a boost for cycling there.

Armitstead second, Cooke third, Laws fourth – all the top four bar Cooke ride for Cervelo women’s team – a pretty dominating performance
Terpstra will wear the Dutch jersey in te Tour!
He was in a breakaway of 2 with Rabo-rebel Weening. Moerenhout and Boom almost closed the 40 sec gap in the last 3 km.

Weening didn't make himself popular within the Rabo team
The DS’s are unusually outspoken about the tactical savvy of one of their riders. Normally they never say anything negative but not today.
Rabo should have been able to break Terpstra but instead Weening ‘helped’ him to stay away. Weening on another team soon wouldn’t surprise me…
