Race report The 192 kilometer race was held on dusty, unpaved and stony roads and in scorching heat. After 45 kilometers Jules Vanhevel attacked and only Georges Ronsse joined him. The others hesitated and the two Belgians were able to gain a lead of several minutes. The Italian favorites Costante Girardengo and defending champion Alfredo Binda were great rivals and did not want to ride for each other; eventually they would both give up. Gaetano Belloni sacrificed himself, but he was set back by tire failure, just like several other participants. Along the way, Vanhevel fell after colliding with an ox team and injured himself in the fall. He was able to return to Ronsse, but when he attacked on a slope 70 km from the end, Vanhevel had to pass and give up. Ronsse was able to win with a lead of almost 20 minutes over the Germans Nebe and Wolke, which is still the largest lead with which a world championship has been won.Mahau Hector 2002 DE WERELDKAMPIOENSCHAPPEN WIELRENNEN OP DE WEG 1927 - 2002 https://www.sportsmemories.be/Book.aspx?id=13679 World Championship Cycling 75 Years (Complete Record) De Eecloonaar nl 9789074128841 Final classification General classificationhttp://www.memoire-du-cyclisme.net/chp_mondial/mondial1928.php 2ème Championnat du monde sur route 1928 Memoire du cyclisme https://web.archive.org/web/20041103073649/http://www.memoire-du-cyclisme.net/chp_mondial/mondial1928.php 3 November 2004http://firstcycling.com/race.php?r=26&y=1928 1928 World Championship First Cycling 14 December 2017 Rank Rider Time Georges Ronsse BEL 6h 20' 10" Herbert Nebe GER Weimar + 19' 43" Bruno Wolke GER Weimar + 19' 43" 4 Joseph Dervaes BEL + 36' 13" 5 Walter Cap AUT + 36' 13" 6 Max Bulla AUT + 36' 13" 7 Otto Cap AUT + 36' 13" 8 Ferdinand Le Drogo FRA + 42' 26" References Men's Road Race Category:UCI Road World Championships – Men's road race
