Summary

The so-called ‘Super Worlds’ came to a conclusion with the women’s road race from Loch Lomond to Glasgow.

Six laps of the city centre circuit created another hell-for-leather battle between the best riders in the world, creating a race that seemed to defy the normal rules of road racing.

With the ‘A team’ of Rose, Orla and Lizzy unavailable for selection, Lionel Birnie is joined by Denny Gray to discuss the action on an afternoon when the race crowned a rider worthy of the world title and a year in the rainbow jersey.

1:07.8

And we've just watched it, haven't we? And what a humdinger it was.

1:10.8

Yeah, no thanks, Lionel.

1:12.0

I think we would find a workout whether we were the D-Team or the E-Team beforehand,

1:16.2

wouldn't we? But anyway, whatever we are, we're here.

1:19.0

It was a cracking race.

1:20.6

I had to say I was a little bit nervous before the race.

We've seen some kind of brilliant additions of the road races,

1:30.4

And I guess I was just hoping for more of the same for the women today.

1:33.7

And I don't think they disappointed.

1:35.0

They certainly didn't.
