World Cycling Championship Florence 22 - 29 September 2013

Interesting. I didn't imagine that Wiggins would ride for Froome but I'm glad he seems to have come to terms with it all, and is acting like a team player.
Having seen Froome's futile attack on the last hill of the Montreal race last week which was nullified in a flash, it's hard to know whether he'll have the form to win it.

OPQS win the TTT by 0.81 secs from Orica Greenedge. Blooming heck...

Specilized Lululemon win the Women's TTT from Rabo & Orica women

OPQS win the TTT by 0.81 secs from Orica Greenedge.

With less than 1 second... now, that's irony

After the young'uns have performed, it's onto the big one for British hopes tomorrow.
Wiggo in the TT. Should be a close run affair with Canc, Tony M and whoever else has a good day.

For those at work, I think this is live on the BBC website

So... predictions for tomorrow? I'm going for Wiggo by at least 40 secs

No long ramps - I'll go for 23 secs.

I hope Wiggins by 2 minutes. He'll have an absolute barn stormer now he has won the golden jersey

I think Tony Martin is slight favourite for today. I imagine if Wiggo gets it it won't be by more than about 30 secs.

Think Wiggins at best can win, but how good will he be today
