• That's very bad luck for Björn, shame that it has probably taken the sting out of the race at the front now. Time to concentrate on hippy's successive visits to famous beer towns.

  • Not necessarily.

    @skinny is still racing to beat his time from last year and, as with Bjorn today, all it would take is a bad day or mechanical and everything is back on again.

    It's still a major challenge just to finish this race for @skinny and it's definitely not a sure thing that he's won it!

  • I think he was referring to the joke that the race had been cancelled when tracking website went down.

  • Yes, I'd dare to bet it would be skinny pointing this out on here if he wasn't the one racing!

  • Not necessarily.

    Sure, but I have to confess that that doesn't interest me at all--mainly because the parcours is completely different. I'm sure it's comparable in some way, but not directly enough for my taste.

    and, as with Bjorn today, all it would take is a bad day or mechanical and everything is back on again.

    Yes, obviously, but while I find it entertaining and thrilling to follow a close race, and want skinny to win, I don't want him to suffer any such event. It doesn't keep me on the edge of my seat to wonder if something like that is going to happen.

    I agree, but for the time time being it's definitely taken the sting out of the race at the front (for me).

    The best scenario is when there are a couple of very close competitors, as skinny would undoubtedly agree, too. Right now, that's not the case.
