October 15, 2000, day reserved for professionals in the road world cycling championships in Plié, France. Oscar Freire was the last winner and starts as a favorite in French lands. The Spaniard was aiming for his second world championship after the unexpected and glorious victory the previous year at the world championship in Verona.
Other big favorites were Oscar Camenzin, winner in the 9; the Frenchmen Jalabert and Brochard, great specialists in one-day races; the Belgian Van Petegen and the always fighting riders of the East, like Tchimil, Vinoukorov or Konichev. From the east will also come our great protagonist, but all in time.
