For me-
I liked the asymmetry of racing 2009 & 2010, very aggressive races with lots of guys rolling the dice.
That said, the teamwork of the Italian team in 2008, and the perfect, perfect attack of Ballan is the best for me.
2001, where Freire beat Bettini on the line is a close second. If Bettini had followed a different line, or if his pass on Decker had gone differently, he would have been a 3x world champ instead of Freire.

Because I read this wrong, thinking "men's HC road race..." I'll answer the question I wanted to answer:
Cav on the Champs Elysees in 2009
Froome edging out Cobo in the Vuelta this year
I know I did not answer your question. And there are many other extremely good answers. Thank you, that is all.
