    Summer Games Paris 2024

    Montmartre via Rue Lepic This will look fantastic. In his epic short film C’était un rendez-vous director Claude Lelouch used Rue Caulaincourt to get to Sacré-Cœur. He drove a Mercedes-Benz 450 SEL 6.9 with some 290hp through the quiet Sunday morning of Paris in 1976. He violated every speed...

    Giro d'Italia Giro d'Italia 2024: Stage-by-stage analysis

    LA fleche wallone thread

    2003 was good, too. 15 rider strong group going on first Mur with 130k to go. They never came back and Astarloa attacked with Osa at 10 to go. And then they battled mano a mano. That was great to watch.
