Also, he collects road racing bikes Can’t imagine that’s a cheap hobby “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire.

heywoodu 13,500 Posted February 14, 2020 #113 Share Posted February 14, 2020 Ice looks insanely fast btw, Loubineaud already went sub-13, Beckert and Tsuchiya are way faster for now. The WR is under threat. 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!

I find it hard to judge Bergsma's actual technique because there's always 17 meters of limbs flying around when she skates. dcro 1 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!

France used to have Italian coaches...but I don't think it's the case anymore... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beckert is now the 6th fastest skater in history and the first ever non-Dutch born to go under 12:50 12:30 is going down dcro 1 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!

dcro 10,172 Posted February 14, 2020 #119 Share Posted February 14, 2020 Beckert once again looked as though he had much in reserve when he crossed the line. #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
