2022 National Road and ITT Champions Roundup

Most national cycling federations in the Northern Hemisphere hold their national road and time trial championships in the end of June. This past week, new champions were crowned in both disciplines and earned the right to wear their national colors in those events until their next champions are selected.

As of this week - teams have not announced their Tour de France Femmes avec Zwift rosters, but, watch for the champions on Women’s World Tour and organizer-invited Continental Pro teams to show off their champion’s kits in the TdFFaZ 2022.

Random question. How come some posts (topic starters) can be like and others cannot?

Good question, Lin. It’s something to do with how each category is set up in the Forums software, no?
In Feature Requests, General Discussion or, say, FutureWorks: thread-starting posts can only be voted for, not liked. In Racing (here), Events, or Android, for instance: thread-starting posts can’t be voted for but can be liked.
I can’t say why that would be so. :man_shrugging:
