Watching this afternoon's inline skating...I am in love with this venue I think, it looks drop dead gorgeous right by the sea :wub:

 

I didn't see anything urban about that venue. It's suburban, at best.

Buenos Aires is probably the best South American city I've visited. I was told to be careful because the city could be dangerous, but it was safe and relaxing all the way.

Then I took a ferry ride to Uruguay so I could take my plane back to Brazil, and when I got to Montevideo, the taxi driver left me at the airport and then stole all my luggage. :facepalm:

I would say Brasilia is the best South American city I've visited. It helps that it's also the only one (unless you count Recanto das Emas and Taguatinga as separate cities, but even if you do Brasilia stays on top compared to especially the first :p). Next year São Carlos and/or Caraguatatuba are probably added to the list, so let's see :p

Great city with great people. Just take care with the taxi drivers.

I'm amazed at how well you can spell Caraguatatuba and Taguatinga.

:d 

 

I've also got Jacupiranga firmly stuck in my head even though I haven't typed that until now for 4 years or something (which is when the girl who lived there and I was in contact with disappeared from internet). Actually it's all thanks to girls, my ex spent half her life in Taguatinga and so I spent most of my month in Brazil there, whereas my current (and definitely last :cool::wub:) girlfriend lives in Caraguatatuba....so you've kinda got no choice to learn those names :lol:

    • One of my favorite songs from the early 2000s that I listened to on a cassette on my walkman      
    • For me 20 medals will be good. And if more there are? Super. However, I prefer not to get my hopes up too much, so as not to be disappointed later.
    • If you're still taking suggestions, I tought the following:   Team Madison format.   17 teams of 2 "riders", randomly drawn. Teams can be named for famous "endurance" track cyclists. 4 intermediate "sprints", one after a voting block, in which the top 8 teams will score according to this formula: (10, 8, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 & 1). The order in which team score for a sprint are determined by the total number of "medals" won by both members of the team during the block. Ranking will be sorted according to the number of gold medals, then silver, then bronze. If there's two or more teams with same number of points, the medals of best individual performer of each team will be considered to break the tie. If the tie remains, then team's total points during the block will be used to break it. If the team fails to receive a single medal during each block, it will be considered to "lose lap" and 20 points will be substracted from their score. If the team fails to score at least 1 point during each block, it will be an automatic DNF for the team. If both members of the team get a medal from a single jury, it will be considered to "gain lap" and 20 points will be added to their score. A team can only win an additional lap per voting block. After the 4 intermediate, a "final" sprint will be recorded, in which points will be doubled (20, 16, 12, 10, 8, 6, 4 & 2). Ranking for the final sprint will take into account the total medals won during the event.   What do you think?
    • I don't medal pick, per se... I assign probabilities/expected-values and total them up. So I don't have a gold medal estimate... but if you want one, divide those numbers by three and you'll be pretty close!   I imagine Norway, Italy and Netherlands and maybe Canada will probably skew a bit higher on golds, and US, Germany, and Sweden will skew a little lower... so maybe: Norway - 14 US - 11 Germany - 11 Italy - 11 Canada - 10 Austria - 8 Netherlands - 8 Japan - 7 Sweden - 6 France.- 6   I was surprised seeing Italy come in that high, I was figuring 22-23, but I guess they've been do well on the World Cups. 
    • If you were to predict top- 10 for the number of gold medals, what would it look like?     For me, as an Italian, any result for Italy: +20 medals would be OK (if that will include 6-7 gold medals). The trauma of Turin 2006 is too great
    • Doesn't really help that two of the strongest countries in that particular sport are banned from the team event for well known reasons.
    • Just another reason why it's super dumb that the NOC max in freestyle skiing isn't 40.
    • In rugby there's More Squidge Rugby (the main channel has proper videos).
