    Yes 1988 Worlds...87, 88 and 89 were such great years in cycling in my opinion. That's when I first got into cycling as a young teenager and unfortunately through my eyes it's slowly been downhill since but my glasses are rose in colour I guess...

    That 88 Worlds was something. Bauer doing some serious bush league stuff in the finale...

    At least Australia became a nation to be reckoned with during that period. I have always been a fan of Evans; tough as nails, almost always outgunned on the climbs (albeit only slightly), but damn he always gave his best, as epitomized by his WC win in 2009 (the front group, lead by Cancellara of all people, gapped him by 5 seconds at the top of the penultimate climb) and his chase of Schleck up the Galibier.

    The way he won the 2009 WC also shows why IRL road racing makes for a compelling watch. Unlike Lemond (another fav of mine), up to that point of his career, Evans really hadn't had the palmares for one-day races. Out of the eventual lead group of ~10, Evans was probably among the least likely to win, as the the others in that group included Cancellara, Gilbert, Cunego, Rodriguez, Valverde, and Sanchez. Yet Evans not only closed that gap (while Cancellara was attacking on the downhill) but had enough to instigate a small break of his own. At first, it looked harmless, but Cancellara, having just attacked on both sides of the previous hill and closed the gap, refused to pedal more once the group was stitched back together. So three seconds later, that small break sailed on again, this time for good.
