  1. Oi, Vlasov having trouble getting his coat on in the cold & wet. Took him about five minutes. Pieter Serry knocked down by Bike Exchange car! Someone is going to be out of a job.
  2. Turning into a last man standing Giro, like last year.
  3. The Israelis know the day they fall behind in the technical race is the day they all die, so they keep ahead.
  4. Always the same: Hamas leaders boast & act the big hero when it is just ordinary, low-ranked Palestinians being killed. They’re the first to run away & beg for mercy when the Israelis manage to target the leaders themselves. Has been going on for decades, yet the rest of the world keeps falling for the con trick. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9574147/Netanyahu-rejects-Hamas-ceasefire-plea-nine-commanders-neutralised.html
  5. First Triathlon World Series races of the year from Yokohama this weekend. It’s live on the BBC if you can get that, otherwise on Pay TV streaming. https://www.triathlon.org/
  6. Crikey, that is the River Rubicon* itself! Border between Cisalipine Gaul & Rome. * Actually, nobody really knows. But Mussolini said it was that one, so that’s where they built the statues.
  7. It’s the commentators I feel sorry for. Bit of an insult to San Marino as well - the Italians will be punished when the Eurovision votes are counted. A course profile that would win the approval of Julius Caesar himself - dead flat, dead straight. Some possibility of echelons, if there’s a wind off the sea from the North.
  8. Bernal gets about a dozen seconds, as do the climbing specialists, over The Chosen One. João Almedia will be Going For Stage Wins. Italian TV frantically scrolling through the top 30 to find Nibali’s name.
  9. Joe Dombrowski 20 years old & won the U-23 Giro 9 years ago, according to British Eurosport.
  10. 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.
  11. Horrible overthrown last stone by Hasselborg gives the USA a 5 in the 7th end for a 7-4 lead in the bronze medal play-off. And she never got her nerve back, 9-4 in the end.
  12. Big crowds in Cisalpine Gaul. Victor Campenaerts making his bid to be the man who sits in a chair for 2 hours and 45 minutes only to have his win snatched away by the last rider.
  13. We are getting all the wind that belongs to you.
  14. Skiing in England in May. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-cumbria-57011369
  15. Maybe in the Highlands, but here it’s the first time I remember it since the 1970s.
  16. Got snow in Edinburgh today.
  17. So we are seriously looking at not qualifying for the Olympics......
  18. South African fourth leg runner on a kamikaze mission.
  19. Poles just not used to cold, windy conditions.
  20. Poland & Denmark did their best.
  21. Rare World Championship medal for
  22. Yeah, Swiss second change was awful.
  23. Going to be some DQFs here.
  24. Have to requalify via world ranking.
  25. Jeez, Brazil and Ghana DQF!
