Sadly, the stranglehold UCI has on organised cycling around the globe is not going to go away anytime soon, pandemic or not. The rise of "gravel" riding and races is proof that we can have more fun when the UCI isn't involved.

I think that races on recumbents would be comparably boring. Because there are fewer tactical options when drag is reduced. So I can understand why there are races on the classical frame.

But yeah, that shouldn't stop everybody else from using a modern frame.
