[@hernanhernandez3861]

That kid is going places. Super calm and in control... then BOOM!

[@johndarcey]

Luke Plapp, so good for cycling. Great finish.

[@stevemt3238]

There is no doubt that cyclocross is the foundation for road success.

[@scotth3354]

why? Because TWO riders who were standout CXers as kids are now top road cyclists? By that standard, there's no doubt that MTB is the foundation for road success. No, wait, it's BMX that's the foundation for road success. Or, is it soccer?

[@stevemt3238]

@@scotth3354 Besides MVDP & WVA, there are other cross riders who do both. Some are Tom Pidcock, Tim Merlier, Gianni Vermeersch, and Adri VDP.

[@scotth3354]

@@stevemt3238 5 more? Damn, then it's settled. Besides, it's not doing both that's a big deal. You said it's the foundation for road success. Not sure that's the case, even for these riders.

[@soulripper31]

@@scotth3354 What current MTB riders have found sucess on the road? I can tell you about many CX riders who are succesful on the road.

[@scotth3354]

@@soulripper31 Kuss, for one. Pidcock is another. That said, do I really need to explain the difference between causation and correlation?

Glad you think so!

[@StefNMusic]

Out there looking like a young MVDP!

[@SuperTaylor68]

What a ride 🎉

[@nowyourefinished6481]

Nothing better than the strongest and most sportsmanlike rider winning despite the less-than-savory actions of another rider. Congrats Thibau!

[@nicolasmichiels9972]

His father will be proud

[@miche_amico]

Was cheering for Plappy but it's certainly a deserved win for Nys. Nice race!

[@bernardo9202]

Wow fighting for the wheel of Plapp s hilarious and is trying to close the door to Nys? ahah

[@mismo358]

They used Plapp as a screen lol! Disrespectful😂

[@TW2T]

[@leduch]

[@RobertJWaid]

The value of wait for it, wait for it, wait for it,...

[@scotth3354]

It's Thibau NIECE, not Thibau NICE. 2 days in a row?? C'mon, man...

[@ScottTrolls]

it's neither. I have no idea how to write it phonetically in English. It is really a sound I don't think exists in English.

[@scotth3354]

@@ScottTrolls I would almost agree, except practically every other commentator AND Sven himself pronounces it like Niece.

[@nihilistmarmot]

Never correct a pronunciation without being sure -- it's not a good look. kzbin.info/www/bejne/qpunp4xpbLapq6csi=4sNFcAAQkiQr7JXb&t=50

[@robinbeckford]

Carlton can't resist a bad pun opportunity |-)
