Lars Boom had intestinal trouble yesterday and had to stop and jump in some spectator's 'mobile home' to take a - undoubtedly - near-liquid crap, for which he later thanked the owners who let him go in their mobile home. He arrived 3 seconds within the time limit.

Looking at the invited teams, there should be more than 4

Sovac - Natura4Ever, Medellin, Elevate - KHS Pro Cycling, Kinan Cycling Team, HKSI and Team UKYO are at least all Continental teams and invited (haven't checked all invited teams).

Maybe some teams don't have the resources to go.

Milano Cortina 2026 will be their fifth Olympic Games.    * The following are athlete roster adjustments that occurred after their respective sport’s team announcement took place. 
    • https://olympic.ca/press/207-athletes-to-represent-team-canada-at-the-milano-cortina-2026-olympic-winter-games/   Official Canadian press release. 207 athletes as @Topicmaster1010mmentioned earlier.    
    • Olivia Weaver was up 9-4 in the 5th game.  Hania El Hammamy  then scored 5 straight points to tie it up.  Then, took the lead with a sixth straight point, then won with a 7th straight point, taking the Sprott Tournament of Champions in New York.  Still, congrats to Weaver for bringing home second place!  (And congrats to El Hammamy...what a streak at the end!)
    • One thing working in our favor with Luge is that Women's Doubles is just one sled per NOC, so I like our chances there.  We'll be 3rd or 4th in the Relay (one of my favorite events)...if everyone slides cleanly, we'll probably be 4th, behind , , and ...but anything can happen in the relay.  (I think in my official predictions I had us 3rd.  Wishful thinking, I suppose.)
    • They can also just count DNSs to handle this specific situation.
    • I suspect IBSF will make the point system equal in the future regardless on the number of competitors.   My fear is that they will make the awarded points lower, like only 90 points to the winner to balance it out.
    • Olivia Asselin (freestyle skiing)   She was at the X Games competing this week. Another medal hope out the drain, she was in the form of her life 
    • You'd have to ask her simpatic boyfriend from the USA about that, who is often seen at competitions with her participation
    • I think Ro is on a lot of marketing stuff, so I don't imagine USABS would be all that keen on her losing the spot. Perhaps that accounts for their deafening silence.
