I'm slightly surprised that people are surprised; the two strongest riders in the race, who've been head and shoulders above everyone else, are head and shoulders above everyone in the time trial.

I’m blown away that Wout went for the stage but Jonas put 2:51 (over half an hour) into him.

Maybe. Is a frozen conflict as a likely prospect in the short to medium term? Fighting is intense and ground extremely hard fought. Both sides have the men and logistics.

I’d hope the obvious costs of continuing war would be reason enough to negotiate. As for selling a negotiated peace domestically - Russia don’t have their ‘buffer’ country but they have their buffer territory in Donetsk and Luhansk (and ‘liberated peoples’ blah blah).

Used Peli-style cases (and new foam) are fine. I use one for lights, modifiers and speed lights.

They’re easy to pack into trains/planes/automobiles but pretty terrible on a bike.

They gain territory and peace.

unless they can get Russia out of crimea then nato is off the table

Unless, after the current offensive, both sides sit down and new borders are drawn.

Hey @jonny, I think the Player broke for me.

Books open, picking up with the playhead where it belongs. However whilst the play/pause button graphic switches, it has no effect. I can’t play audio.

Perhaps this broke in the last update?

I don’t think anyone is expecting a stable democracy.

Just hoping for a weaker corrupt oligarchy (preferably with some withdrawal from Ukraine and most nukes accounted for).

Oh Paul. I read this really hoping he’s right. Then the bit about F16s and I just can’t really?

🙏🏽

Gripping. Such character depth.

but it would be days before you got the majority of the oil out of the interior

So still a bit better than shaking jars of chain and turps then? ;-)

Cleaning a new chain of it’s factory grease is a bit of a pain and I’m sure this ^ method isn’t the best possible.

I’d be interested in how you anyone gets on with any method.

It’s opposing the use of ‘woman’ as a paradigm for people’s identities. Discrimination and exclusion are implicit.

I cannot see a good reason why anyone would do that.

So yeah, theoretically to race CX all year round some lucky racers may actually be switching categories.

For policy that took a year to cook, it feels a bit half-baked.

I believe anyone who has had any hormone therapy to increase testosterone would have to race in the Open category after BC licence renewal.

Anything under ‘GoRace’ (like summer CX) nobody cares.

Actually, the solution is to the problem: how to run bike races.

Appreciate your perspective.

Literally nobody is being denied participation.

You can’t port that over to professional sport.

From my understanding is BC have provided clarity (and imperfect, temporary rules) until a legitimate alternative is developed. I really hope that’s the case.

Sport relies on agreement between participants on a set of simplistic rules. It’s not real life and it’s not society - thank goodness. It’s only going to exist if participants are ok with (basically) a tyranny of the majority.

If you know another way, let us know.

I try and be aware of the challenges faced by minorities and there’s no way I can be aware of all of the unintended consequences of this decision but (on the face of it) it seems good that there is now clarity?

Sport is predicated on arbitrary restrictions by it’s nature. Any idea of ‘fair’ is a construct.

Bassist balls-cam shot is still 🤘🏽

I’m liking the Konica C35 with a speedlight instead of compacts these days. It’s a two-pocket combo though.

An adapter for pylons and an iPad worked for the AGM-88 HARM.

No negative shim required.

Bump (so people get to enjoy those shots)

And PM’d
