Hopefully he will be able to take Buchmann‘s place in a couple of years. Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be obtained only by someone who is detached.

They are playing 4d chess while the rest is playing checkers ... just like Johnson with his Brexit strategy.

They seem to have imitated him too well by doing absolutely nothing for the last 2 weeks. Edit: This also reminds me of a question Someone asked on german Television a couple of days ago after Buchmann lost a lot of time: “So will Buchmann just ride along like a tourist from on?“ Answer by the German tv expert: “Maybe you should try to ride a stage like that before you call him a tourist“ It was quite funny, you almost got the impression that the guy (on his couch at home) saw it as a personal insult that Buchmann wasn’t able to do any better.

Although one can hardly say it's Jungels fault. If anything, it's Higuita's own fault, but I'd rather say it's a 'race incident' or just bad luck. dcro 1 If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!
