Cycling fans were treated to a blockbuster weekend of race action, headlined by Remco Evenepoel’s historic victory at the 2025 UCI Road World Championships Time Trial in Kigali. The Belgian superstar smashed the 40km course to claim his third consecutive ITT world title, putting a stunning 2:47 into Tadej Pogačar and cementing his place among the sport’s greatest time trialists. Beyond the rainbow stripes, the week is packed with major racing headlines: the UCI Worlds making history as the first edition ever held in Africa, Bradyn Lange and Lauren Stephens powering to elite titles at the 2025 USA Cycling Gravel National Championships, and more debate over the “correct” pronunciation of Jonas Vingegaard’s name. Here’s your complete PEZ roundup of the biggest stories shaping the pro cycling world this week.

Remco Evenepoel takes 2:47 From Pogacar in Men’s Time Trial

If this isn’t THE big news of the day, I don’t know what is…  Remco Evenepoel winning the Men’s individual Time trial for a third straight year as only the second man in 30 years to do it – (Tony Martin won three straight 2011-13) – but what’s even more shocking is that he caught and passed Tadej Pogacar on the way – ultimately beating the heretofore unbeatable Tadej by 2:47 over 40km.

The tale of the tape is that Remco is clearly the strongest rider on the road right now – setting him up as the odds on favorite for Sunday’s men’s Road Race.

 Lange and Stephens Win Elite Titles at the 2025 USA Cycling Gravel National Championships p/b Vittoria Tires

Forty-three athletes earn the Stars and Stripes at the third annual Gravel National Championships in La Crescent, Minnesota.

LA CRESCENT, Minn. – September 20, 2025 – The 2025 USA Cycling Gravel National Championships p/b Vittoria kicked off on Sunday morning in downtown La Crescent, Minnesota. In total, 43 separate categories competed for the opportunity to earn the Stars and Stripes jersey across three different courses: 100 miles, 74 miles, and 31 miles. With a $20,000 prize purse on the line, the elite fields were loaded with top gravel talent.

Elite Men/Open 19+
Fifty-four riders toed the line to take on the 100-mile route. From the start, the pace was high, topping 32 mph, with early attacks setting the tone for a fast and tactical day on course. The field began to splinter on the first climb, with a small group gaining two minutes as they entered the second gravel section. The gap grew to over four minutes with riders Zach Nehr (Menomonee Falls, Wis.; ZNehr Coaching), Marc Spratt (Millcreek, Utah), Nathan Spratt (Millcreek, Utah), Chase Wark (Winona, Minn.; Lunchbox Racing), Thomas Fuller (Redlands, Calif.; Cyclery USA/Big Wheel Coaching), Tim McBirney (Madison, Wis.; Team Mike’s Bikes p/b Equator Coffees), and Michael Garrison (Decatur, Ga.; MGR) driving the move. The leaders held a three-minute advantage over a main chase group of 18 riders as they reached the southernmost part of the course. Nearly three hours into the race, Brennan Wertz (Mill Valley, Calif.; Scott/Skipstone), Bradyn Lange (Fairfax, Calif.; Pinarello/Orange Seal), and Daxton Mock (Lake Mills, Wis.; Bear/Orange Seal) launched a counterattack, closing the gap to one minute and 45 seconds. At mile 71, a crash in the break disrupted the group, with four riders losing contact. Marc Spratt, Wark, and Garrison stayed upright and pressed on toward the finish. With about 10 miles remaining, Cole Davis (Roseville, Calif.; Project Echelon Racing), Alexey Vermeulen (Pinckney, Mich.; ENVE + Wille’s Dad), Cobe Freeburn (Durango, Colo.; MAAP Trek), and Lange bridged across, forming a seven-rider lead group. Garrison made a late bid for victory, gaining 20 seconds with five miles to go before being reeled back in. From there, attacks flew inside the closing miles. Lange was able to slip away to ride solo into the finish and earn the Stars and Stripes jersey. Garrison held on for second, while Davis rounded out the podium in third.

When asked about the race, Lange responded, “It turned into survival on all the final climbs, going all out on those. I bridged to the lead group with 10 miles to go, and there were five of us entering the final section which suited me well as a mountain biker. I hit it on the first kicker and got away and held it.”

Results:

1. Bradyn Lange (Fairfax, Calif.; Pinarello/Orange Seal)

2. Michael Garrison (Decatur, Ga.; MGR)

3. Cole Davis (Roseville, Calif.; Project Echelon Racing)

4. Alexey Vermeulen (Pinckney, Mich.; ENVE + Wille’s Dad)

5. Chase Wark (Winona, Minn.; Lunchbox Racing)

Elite Women/Open 19+
Twenty-six riders rolled out for 100 miles with the hopes of claiming the Stars and Stripes. In the opening miles, riders marked each other, shutting down early attacks. The field stayed intact through much of the first half. At the midway point, a decisive move formed when six riders established a gap. The group included reigning national champion Lauren Stephens (Dallas, Texas; Aegis Cycling Foundation), Leah Van Der Linden (Boulder, Colo.; Lauf | Continental | Tifosi | Hunt | Eliel), Emma Langley (Richmond, Va.; Aegis Cycling Foundation), Lauren De Crescenzo (Boulder, Colo.; LDC LLC p/b Factor Racing), Melisa Rollins (Alpine, Utah; Liv Racing Collective), and Emily Joy Newsom (Fort Worth, Texas; PAS Racing). Sarah Lange (Lyme, N.H.) hung just 10 seconds off the back, with the main field sitting two minutes behind. The marsh section proved pivotal, where the pace split the group and left Stephens, Newsom, and Lange out front. On Chicken Ridge, Stephens and Lange launched repeated attacks on one another in the closing 20 miles, but neither could shake the other. As the race approached town, the stage was set for a head-to-head sprint between the two leaders. However, Stephens had different plans and was able to power away from Lange in the final miles, rolling in for gold, and keeping the Stars and Stripes jersey for another year. Lange had a great ride to claim silver, with De Crescenzo crossing the line for bronze.

“The race was the hardest one we’ve had so far with six-to-eight thousand feet of climbing,” said Stephens. “Coming out of Hoka, a few riders went down, and that was really the point that made the race. The following climb, Sarah Lange and I pulled away from Emily Newsom, and from there on we worked together until the steep cyclocross kicker, where I was able to pull off the win out of that section.”

Results:

1. Lauren Stephens (Dallas, Texas; Aegis Cycling Foundation)

2. Sarah Lange (Lyme, N.H.)

3. Lauren De Crescenzo (Boulder, Colo.; LDC LLC p/b Factor Racing)

4. Emily Joy Newsom (Fort Worth, Texas; PAS Racing)

5. Melisa Rollins (Alpine, Utah; Liv Racing Collective)

RIDER AND TEAM NEWS

• PEZ Fan Offers “Correct” Pronouncuation of Jonas Vingegaaard’s name

In a recent edition of EUROTrash, Mike offered a few tips from the armchair on how to correctly pronounce Jonas Vingegaard’s name.  The correct way to say it has been a mystery to many of us non-Europeans ever since he started winning races.  And one thing that’s painful about watching the North American race coverage and our “own” announcers, is how badly they butcher the pronunciation of riders’ names – and this from guys who often were top level Eiro pros themselves.  It’s embarrassing, and hurts my ears.

So in the spirit of free speech, even us here at PEZ are not above public scrutiny and if needed – correction.  So writes PEZ Fan Mike S. from Alaska:

Dear Pez folks,

Hear Jonas Vingegaard pronounce his own name (we assume he’s doing it correctly.)
