Peter Sagan and Lizzie Armitstead walked away with the biggest prizes of the Richmond World Championships, and we analyze exactly how Sagan won — a mix of tactics, and uncanny skill.

In Cycling Shorts, we discuss the controversy surrounding Linda Villumsen's winning TT bike, Team Sky's newest signings, and the never-ending question of wearing white shorts with world champion's kit.

Also: We announce the winners of our 6 pairs of tickets to the Six Day London, held October 18-23.

As you'd expect we have a great tech of the week, caption competition, tweet of the week, and more. So, chime in in the comments, SHARE this video and, if you haven't already subscribed to GCN, click here to do just that: http://gcn.eu/SubscribeToGCN
