Irish talent Ryan Mullen missed out on the under-23 men's time trial world title on Monday by the narrowest of margins - less than half a second.
Mullen set the fastest times on the two intermediate time checkpoints, but lost ground to eventual winner Campbell Flakemore (Australia) in the final, hilly section before the line in Ponferrada, Spain.
Stefan Keung (Switzerland) placed third, just over nine seconds adrift of Flakemore.
Great Britain's Jon Dibben put in a strong ride to finish sixth overall, with team-mate Scott Davies in 21st spot.
Nigel Wynn worked as associate editor on CyclingWeekly.com, he worked almost single-handedly on the Cycling Weekly website in its early days. His passion for cycling, his writing and his creativity, as well as his hard work and dedication, were the original driving force behind the website’s success. Without him, CyclingWeekly.com would certainly not exist on the size and scale that it enjoys today. Nigel sadly passed away, following a brave battle with a cancer-related illness, in 2018. He was a highly valued colleague, and more importantly, an exceptional person to work with - his presence is sorely missed.
