  1. Ah, the old Cipollini* move. Haven’t seen it done for a while. *Snappy answer delayed by extensive spelling research.
  2. Dunno about the , but for us Leeds will be the last chance qual.
  3. Not 100%, but lots of good names. She deserved it: put in a huge effort on the bike, got away with Taylor Knibb , and built up a two minute lead. Lost space on the run, but job done. Is that an Olympic Q for her?
  4. Brave win for Caleb Ewan - had chase down a break from about 500m, rest, then surge again.
  5. It’s a fine thing that the Egyptian Govt & many Egyptian people wish to reconcile. However, in every Muslim and some European countries there is a large enough number of people who make reconciliation & permanent return impossible. As long as that is the case Israel must always be a Jewish homeland.
  6. Jewish population of Egypt in 1948 - 80,000 Jewish population of Egypt in 2019 - 5
  7. Jewish population of Tunisia in 1948 - 100,000 Jewish population of Tunisia now - 2000
  8. Not familiar with those names...... Oh, you must mean my old mates Hetti Thanthrige Ushan Thiwanka Perera & Yupun Abeykoon Mudiyansalage, right?
  9. It’s Attila the Hungarian by 11 secs.
  10. Jai Hindley another out the back, will now be the Chosen One’s wingman. Bernal attacks.
  11. Is now working on the PLA’s American Pipelines Project. A Chinese student who exploited a glitch in KFC's online ordering systems to get endless free chicken has been jailed. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9574603/Student-exploited-KFC-app-glitch-infinite-free-chicken-jailed-China.html
  12. 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.
  13. Turning into a last man standing Giro, like last year.
  14. The Israelis know the day they fall behind in the technical race is the day they all die, so they keep ahead.
  15. 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
  16. 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/
  17. 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.
  18. 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.
  19. 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.
  20. Joe Dombrowski 20 years old & won the U-23 Giro 9 years ago, according to British Eurosport.
  21. 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.
  22. 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.
  23. 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.
  24. We are getting all the wind that belongs to you.
