  1. When even people from the home of this kind of racing are confused, cheering one lap too early (including the commentator), you know madison is confusing
  2. Wow, Martina yet again seems to be in quite good shape when it (sort of) matters
  3. Seriously, how freaking hard can it be to have a constant live standings on screen?
  4. My thoughts: "Nope, I am not gonna let the fun of Elliott's awesome win get sucked away"
  5. Which all has exactly 0 effect on cheering for Chase Elliott or not
  6. Vece made a mistake in choosing her gears or something?
  7. I disagree about removing the omnium, but they should not have a points race in it 1. Sprint time trial 2. Individual pursuit 3. Elimination race 4. Something explosive yet not individual...keirin? It should quite simply be a good mix of sprint and endurance.
  8. Fantastic scratch race...they should add something like the time trial (500m/1000m) to the omnium to actually make it deserve the name omnium a tiny bit..
  9. Exactly I was actually planning to do my training during the 50k (with the Eurosport Player on the laptop in front of me), but I much rather watch and be able to post about the race instead of just watch
  10. Yeah, the part where I want to do a 2 hour 'training' on my indoor bike and since the action starts at 08.35 and won't die down until somewhere late in the day, I have to start around 6:00-6:30
  11. Meanwhile I am so hyped for tomorrow morning I'm planning on waking up 5am, do my excersise between 6 and 8 and then be ready for the start at 08.30 @hckosice:
  12. Dutch commentator was basically accusing Rapsys and the people around him of cheating this morning, because of his time that was even faster than the world record. "That's just not possible, I don't believe that."
  13. I'm also a big fan of pre-qualified athletes for the 10k and marathons, where the pre-qualified athletes can wait out the first 3 and 10 kilometers respectively.
  14. I hope at least the athletes knew this since for a long time, that would give them the chance to fight to get into a pre-qualified spot. Which doesn't make it any less of a bullshit rule, just to be clear
  15. That too. "Vaccines cause autism!!!" No. They do not.
  16. Vaccination is not mandatory here, but most people do let their children get vaccines, resulting in the 'group immunity' percentage needed. Annoyingly though, especially in our 'Bible Belt' people are reluctant to letting their children get vaccines, putting their own kids and those of others in danger by refusing vaccines.
  17. This is what I think of when hearing orienteering: having to find your way in huge, unmapped (for the athletes) terrain Not mostly in or around some city
  18. Because cheering for or hating a team instead of a driver is lame.
  19. How on earth is it 'orienteering' when apparently it's so easy to get oriented that you finish in 13 minutes?
  20. Chase Elliott just got his first career NASCAR Cup Series win That only took him 99 tries, including eight second place finishes and eight third place finishes! Plus, he's the son of legendary and insanely popular Bill Elliott, Awesome Bill from Dawsonville, and whenever Bill won (44 times), the sirens in the town of Dawsonville would go up and make noise....waiting for reports of that happening right now
  21. Please at least don't let her compete as Lara Behrami
