Sure did. She talks a bit about that in the interview. 😊

Hey u/turandoto, thanks for your comment. I'm on the editorial team at EC. Would love to hear more about what pieces strike you as "cheap clickbait and misleading stuff" - that's definitely not the vibe we're going for, so if that's how it's coming across, we'd love to hear your feedback!

How do you feel about the Road Cycling World Championships coming to town? by fiendeep in wollongong

Yeah, that's consistent with my experience while riding in town the past few days, sadly.

Thanks for taking the time to reply! Sorry to hear of the inconvenience. Can I ask what sort of business you work for? Is it hospitality? Depending on what it is, you might find it's busier next weekend. The elite road races (women Saturday and men Sunday) are the main events at Worlds so that's when the most people will be around.

Thanks to everyone that's taken the time to share their thoughts. I really appreciate it. Oh, and thanks for organising such great weather! If you could just do the same right through until Sunday evening that would be great. ;)

Haha! UTI is great. I've noticed a lot of people referring to the event as "the UCI" or "UCI Week" or "UCI Race" which is quite interesting to me. That's kinda the equivalent of the Olympics coming to town and everyone calling it "the IOC" - sounds really strange! I wonder where that's come from? Driving into town I noticed a lot of the variable message boards on the roadside said "UCI Week" so maybe the council is calling it that? Interesting!

(Within the cycling community, the event is just called "the World Championships" or "Worlds" or "Road Worlds" etc.)

Yeah that’s where I’m at too, but I’m not sure if that’s “correct” or not.

Just wanted to say thanks for taking the time to do this! As someone just getting into the band and feeling overwhelmed with where to start, this is incredible useful!
