Decathlon C.. other letters Not officially announced, but it looks like a very professional photoshoot, so I'd be surprised if this is not it. Maybe that red and white pattern extends in an interesting way on the back, otherwise unimpressive.

Mainly Tabor World Cup (much higher points scale than most races), and, shock horror, a different weekly winner. 1 SamuCuenca 1212 15 2 DevilsElbow 1198 14 3 JR1012 730 11 4 ArmchairCyclist 608 9 5 RedheadDane 514 10 CollectiveWisdom 1098 13 Default 802 12...

So his totally out of the blue second place in the 2023 Dwars, and that set of spring/early summer results, which would be the bright neon arrows for those given to considering any unexpectedly good performance to be suspicious, are now regarded as above board, and his less impressive 2024...

So did he put on an Aussie accent every time he named an Australian?

And just when the moderation team were breathing a sigh of relief. Interesting to have that pointed out: obviously, anybody's opinions on Catalan nationalism are not valid content here though. Let's take the end of the Adams involvement as a nice line in the sand from all that. Please.

nice drone shots though...

If there is a Women's U23 race, why are some of the women in the elite race wearing black numbers? Edit: although the timetable that was posted above included a WU23 race, there wasn't one. So that explains the black numbers. Have they abandoned the idea of separate WU23 races for this year's...

That route looks to be about as non-technical as is possible. It's going to be entirely strength and pacing.

It looks like, though I'm not sure whether it'll be blocked in some territories, the junior and U23 races might have You Tube coverage: https://www.youtube.com/user/ucichannel/live Whether that is just Tabor, or the whole series, time will tell.

Once again, utterly wrong. The same entity exists, under a new name and different ownership. But, crucially, with the same assets and obligations. And among those assets is a contract with Derek Gee. What value that asset has is yet to be tested, but it exists. And no, Adams couldn't sue him...

I can run an extra tab on the spreadsheet for such a selection, so you could watch and see how it compares, but I wouldn't want one team to be playing by a different set of rules than all the others.

I can only conclude that you are applying some sort of logical fallacy whereby you conclude that if Red Bull are very unlikely to win using the balanced team approach, they become more likely to do so with an unbalanced selection. If we say that they have a 5% chance of victory by a...

No intention here of going into much on the governance of football, but they really don't. You really haven't, but I'm not going to bother asking you for a third time to provide what you apparently cannot understand that you have not provided.

I'll take that as a "no" then. Which makes my second question apposite:

I'm reminded of an interview with Stuart Pearce when he first became Nottingham Forest manager. He described how he finalised his line-up for the first match in charge while at home, and showed his wife his plans. She responded by asking whether it wasn't normal to have a goalkeeper.
