For the Aussies watching on SBS, Dave McKenzie is one of those commentators who continually asks questions, ala Bruce McAvaney: "He's been good today, hasn't he? It's hot today, isn't it? They're really hammering, aren't they?", etc, etc. And don't get me started again on the faux accents :p :)

Rohan Dennis got a 2-year suspended sentence today. Since the case is over, perhaps this thread about him can be reopened https://forum.cyclingnews.com/threads/the-rohan-dennis-thread.34291/page-26

Gee, the Wikigeeks are slack when it comes to updating cyclists' pages :p https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mattias_Skjelmose#Major_results

Why's Simon Clarke already back in Europe? Will he be back for the Nashoes and the TDU? https://www.strava.com/activities/8277459106

Is Joker getting a special drink? ;)

***! This just happened at the Comm Games

No Comm Games thread? A Canadian just got the arse from the Keirin for backing off too far from the rider in front of him while they were behind the derny. Big deal, hey? Ha. :p I think he was the 2nd rider, and he backed way off with 3 guys behind him

'Is it just me, or.....' Is Samantha Stosur's voice not as deep as it was about 5 years ago? ;)

Why has McEwen got the flick from SBS? Farkin boo!

How about the delts and traps on old-mate Maria Sakkari? Jeepers. :p She's definitely beefed up in the last couple of years

Thanks very much

Any news about his injuries? I can't find anything

Does anyone know which Aussies won't be coming home to race this Summer?

Jeremy Hunt has rocked up to the Melbourne masters crits (over-30s) a few times to take the cash, and did so again last night. Incidentally, the guy on the left is Tim Jamieson, who I think raced a little bit in Europe in the late '80s.
