Goggia takes the lead - is that it?

OK, so why waste bazillions of € to build an Italian track for 2026 when you can just use Santa Maurizio?

That has deterred me! London 1948. 1. Military band marches, plays selection of recent popular melodies. 2. Athletes Parade. 3. Speeches {Keep it short, Thomas} 4. Light the Flame 5. Tram home. Rain optional.

They need to be more specific about why cannot play in . . Sadly all sports federations resort to la langue du bois.

Lots to watch this weekend in a variety of sports Classic venue Alpine Also classic venue Bob & Skeleton. Biathlon, NC, Jumping, Luge etc Track Cycling vital Olympics qualifiers National Championships weekend in Cyclo-Cross, will be watching the Road cycling from British Rugby League - RAF v Royal Navy! Also we have the start of the international track athletics season, just waiting to see which will be available FTA. There is a big meet in Florida, but it’s on an expensive pay site.

I’d be going for Viktória; she did every single major event & improved her NR in all of them.

Has turned up on my timeline now, so who knows. I remember there was some copyright glitch for a couple of weeks last year as well.

Cowardly and scandalous decision.

Could you post a link?

Have you ever seen the team event for snowboard cross? Would be the most pointless event ever if did not regularly win it. Anyway, should mention for those who don’t know that these mixed team events exist only because Thomas Bacholympicgoldmedallistfencing1976 is willing to give out extra* gold medals for them. *Normally to get a new gold medal event federations must drop an existing event, hence lost events like the men's kilo TT in track cycling, men's canoe slalom pairs etc.

Yeah, I noticed that yesterday. There is no YT live stream for the two solo skeleton events today but there is for the team event. Very odd.

Very good men’s race this morning. Got the possibility of medals in the mixed relays now.

St Moritz this weekend! The two usual races & a skeleton team event, all on Friday. Team event sadly does not offer the same thrills as luge.

Shorter race today because it was a make-up day, full course promised for Saturday.

The people of respond to narco gangs. https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2024/01/videos_ecuadors_citizens_arm_up_go_fullisrael_on_narcoterrorists_attacking_their_country.html

Looks like there will be a good bit of coverage on Olympics.com, judging from the first day - curling, ski jumping, short track. https://olympics.com/en/sport-events/

General Tuskuzelski continues to crush the patriotic opposition at the behest of his foreign puppet-masters. https://www.breitbart.com/europe/2024/01/10/poland-mini-coup-police-enter-presidential-palace-to-arrest-former-government-ministers/

Yeah, they accelerated to stop getting past at the catch! Very naughty

Think the idea is that Youth are an age-group below Juniors, but of course there is inevitably some overlap.

are confident enough of their place that they can afford to allow Archibald to work up points in the Nations' Cup solo events rather than here, is my interpretation.

Season already underway in the Antipodes with the Nationals, but first races to be televised in Europe start this week with the Tour Down Under (Sheilas) starting in the early hours tomorrow. Followed by the Tour Down Under (Bruces) on Sunday. Then the two Challenge Mallorca series later in the month.

Yeah, when Tai Woffinden was winning the Worlds he got a mention on the highlights show, that's all.

And it’s the first time I remember that there was snow all the way!

It’s the first weekend in January so the eyes of the sporting world turn to Hopton-on-Sea, Norfolk & the opening matches of the epic drama that is the World Indoor Bowls Championships. https://youtube.com/@WorldBowlsTour?si=dVTCzdcn0ckroZNq

Yes, Derby. Also Newport, but I don't think it meets spectator criteria.
