  1. Maybe from today, but she has got a qualifying practice run registered.
  2. Goggia! Every restaurant owner in Italy starts inventing their own Pizza/Pasta Goggia.
  3. Shiffrin sets up her Combined shot.
  4. Was joking. Biathlon used to.
  5. Finished, so will get a couple of World Cup points.
  6. Gah! Ledecka spins out while building a lead!
  7. You’re unlikely to doze off, unlike us.
  8. Well done Grimaud, managed to get the big run in early, none of the big favourites could match it.
  9. Well, it’s because of the reschedule from Sunday.
  10. Slopestyle is the place where show-jumping fence creators spend the winter.
  11. A very shallow pool, amongst random South African horse-racing commentators watching their first Nordic Combined event.
  12. Tough day tomorrow, everything front-loaded to the early morning. Going to bed in ten minutes.
  13. I guess when you get to a certain age even a quite trivial injury can make you think you’re at the end.
  14. Seven-time Olympic Champion, British Track Sprinter Sir Jason Kenney retires & moves into coaching. Amazing stat in the article. [b]Seven[/b] Olympic Golds, but only [b]two[/b] World Championships! Talk about peaking at the right time! https://road.cc/content/news/sir-jason-kenny-confirms-retirement-290293
  15. Monobob has been specifically created to bring new & smaller (in bob terms) into the sport. Women’s Bob has had trouble getting established - some meets in post-Olympic years you only get 10-12 teams.
  16. Wimping out as usual. The IOC know full well that other teams will boycott the ceremony, so there won’t be a ceremony.
  17. I watched a whole pile of Russian historical shows under lockdown. They’re good. The Poles are always the bad guys. As soon as guys with moustaches (Russians have beards) show up, szpeaking Ruszian witz a liszp, accompanied by Catholic priests, you know there is trouble brewing in the Kremlin. English people are usually outrageously camp & speak with American accents, even in the 16th century. The Tsar always goes mad in the end.
  18. Anglo-saxons never get sick of mythological creatures, Japanese never get sick of samurai, French never get sick of bleak existential dilemmas amongst wealthy Parisians. Latin Americans never get sick of babes in bikinis fighting poverty and injustice.
  19. One thing I noticed today. Although we very often see 4-person heats, semis, & even B Finals ending with 2 Pens & 2 Finishers, has that ever happened in an Olympic final? Even in the Bradbury fInal, the others got up & finished. Or does the judges’ relentless Batman-like pursuit of Absolute Justice fall short of making the sport look stupid?
  20. Irish guy in 31 almost hit a track worker!
  21. I don’t know, Jamaican guy has had some good coaching. He remembered to get back into the tuck position for the last turn.
  22. Ah, well, much easier to get a nuclear sub to Montreal than to Lausanne (up the Rhône and get under this bridge at Geneva.
