The challenging courses, deep field of competitors with a large number of titles won, suspense-filled racing, quality of organization, and the friendly hospitality of Québec have made these races choice stops on the tour that all riders aspire to win. With just two weeks to go before race weekend, the 18 UCI WorldTeams and three wild-card teams (Israel Cycling Academy, Rally Cycling and Team Canada) have announced which riders they are sending to the races, and once again this year each has entered a squad of first-rate competitors well suited to the spectacular parcours in Québec City (sept. 7) and Montréal (sept. 9). The peloton of 147 riders, representing 28 countries, includes skilled road warriors like Greg Van Avermaet (BMC Racing Team), the reigning Olympic Champion, who also held the Yellow Jersey for eight days at this year’s Tour de France, won the Montréal GP in 2016, and has been on the podium in Québec City four times since 2012. “I love these two races; every year they’re among my main end-of-season challenges,” says the Classics specialist from Belgium, who will face tough opposition from several riders who are well versed in the traps of both city courses.

  • Ganna Shines in the Tour of Flanders, Kristoff 16Th
    WEEKLY MAGAZINE FOR DEALERS #92 - 3 APRIL 2018 Ganna shines in the Tour of Flanders, Kristoff 16th The young individual pursuit world champion Filippo Ganna is again a player in the northern classics. After Ghent-Wevelgem last week, today he attacked for another 140 kilometres with five others in the Tour of Flanders. “It was great,” Ganna explained. “On the climbs, the fans were yelling so much that I couldn’t even hear myself. The DS every now and then, spoke and I told him to say it again, I couldn’t hear because of the fans. “I like that I’m doing well from the start in these races, but I need to still learn now to race here in the North. Every bit of energy you save, counts. I can’t even think of Roubaix now, I’m too tired.” Niki Terpstra (Quick-Step Floors) won the race solo with 12 seconds over Dane Mads Pedersen (Trek-Segafredo) and 17 seconds over his team-mate Philippe Gilbert. Former winner Alexander Kristoff finished 16th. “In this moment, maybe the Kwaremont is too hard for me,” Kristoff said. “Just missed a little bit. It was smart solution to anticipate the climb, and the best moment was when Terpstra attacked.” Mirza wins the UAE time trial championship One week after having obtained the UAE title in the road race, Yousif Mirza won also the Emirati time trial cham- pionship. Riding his K.one Colnago bike on a 33,5 km course, he preceded in the final standing Marwi (+17″) and Mansoori (+1’35”), adding another victory to the precious ones alrea- dy obtained in the early parto of the season: the road race Asian title, the Asian continental championship on track in the points race and the road race UAE title.

  • How Well Do You Know the 2019 UCI Points Rankings?
    The Outer Line The External Perspective On Pro Cycling How Wellhttps://www.theouterline.com Do You Know the 2019 UCI Points Rankings? The men’s WorldTour bike racing season is almost over, and so it’s time to take a look at the formal grading system which most fans routinely ignore all the rest of the year: the UCI points ranking. But first, a quick pop quiz for all those who consider themselves to be avid followers or students of pro cycling (answers below): Can you name the only WorldTour team with two riders in the top-10 of the men’s UCI rider points ranking? No surprise that rising superstars Primož Rogli? and Julian Alaphilippe rank number 1 and 2. But, who do you think ranks third amongst the top riders – right in front of Tour de France phenom Egan Bernal, crafty veteran Alejandro Valverde (himself a multiple times winner of the points ranking) and veteran hard man Greg van Avermaet? Where do you think Team Ineos, the team with the largest budget, and a roster so stacked with talent that many thought they were threatening to “ruin” the sport, ranks in the final UCI team standings? And in the nations points ranking, what country do you think sits in 26th spot, just behind Eritrea, a small country in the horn of Africa with a population of under five million? If you score two or higher, consider yourself an insightful and expert pro cycling fan. OK, here are the answers. The German team Bora-Hansgrohe – not a team which got a lot of ink in the cycling media this year – had both Pascal Ackerman and Peter Sagan in the top-10, ranked 7th and 10th respectively.

  • En Söndag I Helvetet
    2014-04-11 14:07 CEST En söndag i helvetet 51,1 kilometer gatsten – av 257 kilometer totalt – är en modern förklaring till att Paris-Roubaix kallas "Helvetet i norr". På söndag direktsänder Eurosport den 118 år gamla vårklassikern som vanns av Magnus Bäckstedt 2004. Den historiska bakgrunden till smeknamnet "L'Enfer du Nord" har dock inte med underlaget att göra - gatstensvägar var vid förra seklet snarare regel än undantag - utan myntades av en fransk journalist som 1919 beskrev det ännu krigsärrade landskapet när Paris-Roubaix återupptogs efter fyra års uppehåll. De karaktäristiska gatstensavsnitten i Paris-Roubaix är 28 till antalet. Av dessa kommer nio även att utgöra en del av årets Tour de France, närmare bestämt under den femte etappen (Ypres - Arenberg Porte du Hainaut) som körs 9 juli. Flera av söndagens toppåkare kommer givetvis även att synas under just Tour de France, såsom Fabian Cancellara, Peter Sagan, Bradley Wiggins och Alexander Kristoff. Paris-Roubaix är den enda vårklassiker som har vunnits av en svensk. 2004 spurtslog Magnus Bäckstedt bland andra fjolårsvinnaren Cancellara vid avgörandet inne i velodromen i Roubaix: "När vi skulle komma ur sista biten av svängen så visste jag att det skulle öppnas en lucka på insidan, så det var bara att sitta och vänta för min del", säger Bäckstedt till eurosport.se inför söndagens lopp. Cykel: Paris-Roubaix Söndag 13 mars 13.15-16.45 Paris-Roubaix, direkt på Eurosport (HD) Kommentatorer: Roberto Vacchi och Anders Adamson Fakta om Paris-Roubaix Plats: Frankrike (Compiègne - Roubaix) Premiär: 1896 Smeknamn: L’Enfer du Nord (”Helvetet i norr”), La Reine (”klassikernas drottning”) Längd: 257 km Flest segrar: Belgarna Roger De Vlaeminck och Tom Boonen har fyra segrar var.
