The Road World Championships have barely finished, but attention is already turning to another major championships in France as a host of top riders head to the Drôme-Ardèche region for the UEC Road European Championships.
Wednesday will see riders take on the individual time trials, with the elite men and elite women tackling a 24km course between Loriol-sur-Drôme and Étoile-sur-Rhône and a host of the best time trialists from around Europe taking part.
31 women will be competing for the elite women's European title, starting with Portugal's Daniela Campos at 14:19 local time.
Great Britain's Anna Henderson (14:21) and France's Juliette Labous (14:29) are among the early running big names, but viewers will have to wait for the end of the start list for the medal favourites to get their runs underway.
Watch out for Austria's Christina Schweinberger (14:48) and newly crowned world champion, Swiss rider Marlen Reusser (14:49) as the last two runners of the day.
Later in the afternoon, 31 men will take on the route, with Turkey's Tahir Buğra Yiğit (15:45) kicking off proceedings.
Watch out later on for the favourites for the white and blue European jersey, including world champion Remco Evenepoel of Belgium, last off at 16:15.
Just before he sets off to defend his title, other medal favourites, including Great Britain's Josh Tarling (16:11) and Italy's Filippo Ganna (16:13), will be racing.
