Believe it or not, the Olympic individual time trial race is this weekend! The course is a very urban course through Paris, a very different course than many ITT races. It will be scenic and beautiful, but also very technical. Early reports of teams that have reconned the course say it is very slick from road traffic, so it may favor riders with well-honed bike handling skills.

Here are a few of the top contenders:

Chloe Dygert, the defending Olympic champion in her trademark pink socks or shoes, will be competing, as well as American triathlete phenom Taylor Knibb. We haven't heard much from Dygert lately as she prepared on her own, but we know she's fast. We also know that Knibb is very powerful, though this technical course probably doesn't suit her.

Australian Grace Brown, in her final professional season, will be really targeting this race, and she has looked really good this season. She's a veteran and will be wanting to take home gold in her final year of racing, and she's another top pick.

Another rider looking very good right now, who actually beat Brown by one second in the opening ITT of the Giro d'Italia Women, is Italy's own Elisa Longo Borghini. She will hope to carry her peak form into this weekend.

We don't know what to expect from Anna Henderson, who has broken her collarbone twice this year (ouch!) but is a regular ITT contender for Great Britain and could top the podium on a good day.

Speaking of injury, we would probably rule out Ellen van Dijk after her broken ankle in the first stage of the Vuelta Feminina six weeks ago, if she wasn't Ellen van Dijk. She has been out of racing but still targeting the Olympics, and she has to be considered a top contender.

Another serious Dutch contender is Demi Vollering, who sat out the Giro in favor of the Olympics and the upcoming Tour de France Femmes. She looked in fine form during the spring stage races, and is a regular threat in the ITT.

Finally, some names that won't be competing: Swiss time-trial powerhouse Marlen Reusser will miss the Olympics this year due to lingering issues from a viral infection last month. And Slovenian road race and time trial champ Urška Žigart was curiously not selected for the Slovenian Olympic team, which certainly raised some eyebrows.

I am a liiittle bit disappointed for Elisa Longo Borghini, because she kept catching up to all the attackers

[womensworldtour]

Stage 7 of La Vuelta Feminina was almost tailor-made for Marianne Vos (Visma Lease-a-Bike), an uphill drag after a long day in the cross-winds. What can we say about the greatest of all time, she knows how to get there safely and has the snap to finish. And her team controlled the breakaways, including a decently strong one spurred by Olympic champ Anna Kiesenhofer (Roland).

Vos was in good position heading into the final left-hander, right behind Elisa Longo Borghini (Lidl-Trek). The group was headed by Kristen Faulkner (EF Education-Cannondale), who had a nice lead-out from teammate Alison Jackson and then hammered the climb. Faulkner would take second on the stage, despite doing a lot of work on the front. Her climbing ability reminds us that she took second in the Tour de Suisse in 2022. It's nice to see such a new team like EF so active in this Vuelta.

Demi Vollering (SD Worx-Protime) started out of position (what is going on with that team?) but closed to fourth on the stage, right behind ELB, so the GC is unchanged going into the final mountaintop stage.

LONGO BORGHINI MITICA!

Visto che la #gazzetta se ne frega dell'impresa...ci pensiamo noi! Grande Elisa, super mitica! #gravel #girodellefiandre #bergamogravel #ciclismo #elisalongoborghini #fiandre

Elisa Longo Borghini, la regina italiana del ciclismo su strada, ha riportato la vittoria al Giro delle Fiandre indossando la maglia tricolore per la seconda volta in carriera, nove anni dopo il suo primo trionfo. In una giornata caratterizzata da vento e pioggia, la campionessa di 32 anni proveniente da Ornavasso ha dominato lo sprint finale, superando le sue due compagne di fuga, la polacca…
