Gonna be a drag race. Should be entertaining!

The field has been so tight this year. I’m gonna say Iserbyt. If there was more tech maybe Nys? I don’t know.

Yikes. That's moto gp course. the anti-Koppenberg. Money on Nys with his road legs, but would Love to see LvdH or Michael get it again. Toon is my dark horse. Getting to like Land O' Lakes too.

Not much elevation to speak of. Should be a fast race

Anyone have a link to watch this in the US? I just checked Max and it doesn't look like it is streaming on there today.

Tizcycling is likely your best bet.

Tiz not working, and unlike all the other races it’s not on Flo. Bummer.

tiz worked here for both races. Reception was 100% Women's no interruptions. Men's I had to refresh 3x but none of the usual "stream down" stuff like before.
Definitely a "drag race." no spoilers but, both races out performed (my) expectations.

Both races were amazing, as usual the women’s race was more exciting.

Any tips where to look for a full replay… coverage seemed brutal on this one!

Haven't watched it yet, but this looks promising. There's a women's version as well.

There was no commentary to the mediocre video, but it was very likely a pirated feed of some sort, so expectations shouldn't be too high. Here in the US I suppose that it's about all we can expect with the demise of GCN and the absence of Flo, NBC/Peacock, and Max/Bleacher Report, and we should be grateful for whatever crumbs we can find. I don't know offhand if this fell under the ASO contract or something else. Maybe none of the above, given the lack of coverage. Flo may have broadcast it in Canada.

I was a 60 minute drag race, as expected per the course previews. No hills to speak of, just a couple of ramps and stairs. Flat, dry, and fast. I found it to be neither inspiring nor entertaining. But I'm stoked for the winner, and the runner up who surfaced on my radar last year.

I haven't watched the women's race yet.
