Well deserved win by Mathieu van der Poel in the 2023 Men’s Road Race. Won comfortably even though he crashed. Extraordinary. 👍 🚴‍♂️

Road Race interrupted by protestors getting all French.

I assume it's a #justStopOil protest.

I must admit it's galling to see ShellOil sponsoring British Cycling, and all the sports washing in pro team sponsorship.

And we’re back. #Glasgow2023 #CyclingWorldChampionships

Oooh what’s happening. They’re stopping the race momentarily. #CyclingWorldChampionships

I’m still hoping for rain. #CyclingWorldChampionships

And we’re off! The 2023 UCI Cycling World Championship Mens Road Race

Lots of lovely scenery, I’m not biased…

…because I’m from a different part of Scotland. 😜

Sublime performance, especially in the conditions.

Bluntly, Britain should be banned from hosting major sporting events over this racist policy. #cyclingWorldChampionships #Glasgow23 https://amp.theguardian.com/sport/2023/aug/02/africas-top-cyclist-biniam-girmay-denied-uk-visa-for-glasgow-worlds

It’s not really the world championship if people can’t get in the country to race .

Just call it the euros. Embarrassing, I’d be annoyed if I’d travelled to watch.

Since I went to the local Community meeting for the Gran and Medio Fondo events and spoke to the race organisers I’d heard the route had been changed a couple of times following feedback.

I literally only just found out they’ve also now changed the finish line…to basically down the road from me!

It will start in Perth but finish in grounds of Scone Palace.

Highland Cycling Worlds Cow arrived today!

#procycling #cyclingworldchampionships

I’ve decided I’ll go into Perth to watch the Start and Finish. Riders will be extremely spread out over the Fondo routes elsewhere and, since the road section of the events that passes closest to the where I live is downhill, those riders will be passing in blink of an eye.

I remember a cycling race went through when I was a kid, the whole school lined the main road, all for a split second.

There’s no peloton with this time.

So, tomorrow’s schedule features something a little different.

I’m going to the Community Engagement Drop-in session in the village for the 2023 UCI Cycling World Championships Gran Fondo and Medio Fondo events which will be passing where I live.

I haven’t decided how I’m going to see the events, so hopefully I’ll get sufficient information to make an informed decision so I can get the most enjoyment.

I saw a photo of this info sheet about the road closure timings a week or so ago elsewhere on social media. I’ve still yet to see one in real life.

Sure I can work off this photo for planning how I watch the event, but I’d like to have a real one, and similar things, as a souvenir of the UCI 2023 World Championships Gran Fondo being local.

The UCI Gran Fondo Cycling, as part of the 2023 UCI Cycling World Championships, is coming to Perthshire, my neck of the woods. Almost past my door…
I cannot wait!

And with this, posted elsewhere, it’s so much more real.
