That's like having the speed skating all-round world championships with a 500m, 1000m and 1500m. Which is almost the case in the recent editions, isn't it? They should call it "Procul Omnia Circa", since apparently Latin makes it sound so cool. heywoodu 1 #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just like the omnium in track cycling should have both something very explosive and very much endurance-like If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!

Nice. #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dcro 10,172 Posted March 3, 2018 #157 Share Posted March 3, 2018 I guess this probably means that we'll actually see an overtake in the pursuit final. Hell yeah! heywoodu 1 #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
