Some performance by Ciccone as well...riding head-to-head against Ganna for a good while with his face in the wind, attacking all the time and still going up with the very best climbers of this Giro.....interesting :p 

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! Full story and how to help can be found here!

I am pretty sure this never happened before, considering that Hungarian cycling was always weak. I knew that Valter was somewhat talented, he won the Tour de Hongrie last year, but this is still crazy

Incredible solo win for Taco van der Hoorn.   Not very often you get a breakaway win on Week 1 of a GT.  His brother Burrito & sister Quesadilla must be delighted.

Full potential for things to go very wrong again today. First off, a peloton on fire will have a bunch of sprints inside of it for sprinters to try and be at the front before the 200m 12% part in the finale starts, especially since that part is right after a sharp turn.

This is already after another potentially dangerous roundabout, and is followed by a whole bunch of more dangerous situations. Dangerous corners, dangerous roads, dangerous stuff in the middle of the road (Dombrowski and Landa already fell victim to the organizers earlier this week, after all). 

 

Let's hope things go alright this time...and maybe they learned from earlier and made some changes.

Not very succesful conversation attempt between the Dutch commentators (one Belgian, one Dutch - Karsten Kroon) when passing a motorcycle circuit:

 

"Do you have a motorbike at home?"

"No."

"Ok."

"You?"

"No."

 

And quiet for three kilometers :p 

 

This came after 20 kilometers (at least) of talking about who has the most hits on Google when searching their name :p

Brave win for Caleb Ewan - had chase down a break from about 500m, rest, then surge again.

Plus he had to change his plans because of Gaviria's brave but futile attempt :d

Meanwhile today Gaviria fell out of the breakaway in the descent, but the doctor's car gave him a free ride back into the lead group.

      Those hurt, especially not one but two countries that have never missed a single contest likely missing out now     Where did everyone go?   Edit: I see Slovenia is in, that's fantastic news! Brazil though...   I think I'm going to ask if @brunamoura wants to come up with a song, despite really not having lots of time for it due to training and work. With some luck, she can listen the playlist on Spotify during training or something and get a bit of a sense of which songs she likes. If that's acceptable for people of course, I can perfectly imagine people wouldn't be too happy with that since we literally share a household and it might be seen as a conflict of interest (although anyway I always only tell her my favourite songs after I sent my votes).

      Announcement:   I'm going to extend the deadline for countries submission to Monday 30th September at 23:58 BST, with the voting now not opening to the public until Wednesday 2nd October at 23:58 BST. I felt this was necessary to do due to the lack of nations + the lack of some of the major players and not due to me failing to come up with an entry (@Vektor) that I will be posting after this announcement. This will be the last deadline that is moved, with the only dates potentially moving being the final dates.

      looking at the  Junior WCH (U-20) results so far, seems like USA is gearing up. the target would be to challenge China in LA 2028 and snatch few gold medals here and there.   p.s: China is not participating in Junior WCH     I am wondering if we can see USA in good shape in Bahrain WCH too

      Is Trump becomes President is he really going to let in the likes of Iran if they qualify. Fifa could protest if he won’t but sort of cancelling it they don’t have much leeway.

      SLOVENIA  Magnifico - Hir aj kam hir aj go     Robert Pešut, better known as Magnifico is one of most established Slovenian singers. He started his solo career more than 30 years ago.   Few weeks ago, he celebrated this jubilee with special concert in front of more than 20.000 people on special site in Ljubljana. Maybe does not seem a lot, but here there were not many concerts played with that crowd.   He is known for his special type of humour in his music and lyrics. Around 20 years ago he sold album Export Import, from which most known song is "Hir aj kam hir aj go", which was received well in other countries, especially in Italy.   Just another fact, Magnifico wrote two Eurovision songs, Sestre - Samo Ljubezen (Only Love) in 2002 and also for Montenegrin performer Rambo Amadeus (Euro Neuro).   He tried himself to perform at Eurovision, but with his still very well known "Silvija", ended 5th in EMA 1998 (Slovenia National Final).   SONG LYRICS
