Been a while! Quit after 10 years or so iirc. It became a grind without much sense in the end. I'll have a look at the newer version but I doubt I'll get involved.

Several picks in there I just simply don't understand. Ah well.

Anything nice over the weekend, chaps? I was introduced to two white wines from Slovenia. A "pinot gris" and I forgot what else. The pinot was very good, the other one not so much. And then a (french) white wine at a low price whose reference I need to get back from my friend, that was really top. ...

This is not "speedos only"... swimming boxers are allowed as well and that's what pretty much 95% of the male population is wearing out there. Baggies are the only ones forbidden.

Talking about Bernard Magrez, if you go to Pape Clement they have a boutique where you can actually taste several wines of the Magrez "collection" from around the world. PS: I drive/cycle along the Haut Brion vineyards pretty much everyday since my workplace is just nearby. They started (hand-)harve...

Indeed it will be much faster to get to the Pessac-Leognan châteaux from Arcachon. Aim for the village of Martillac on your GPS to get in the middle of things. The roads around here in Bordeaux are still very busy with lots of people still on holidays enjoying the weather. Driving from Arcachon to t...

I'll recommend the Beyerdynamic series, either the DT990 ones (open headphones) or the DT770 (closed headphones if you prefer that your music does not "leak" or if you don't want to disturb people around you). I use them for music and PC games as well. Good build, extremely comfy and there are plent...

Amazing views of the peloton on the Champs-Elysées at sunset.

Plus the only official time cell prior to the finish was at the top of the Iseran. You can't just rely on GPS position for that.

Wow, unbelievable
I know ... I have seen a Thomson TV in years !

An operating one with that! Not mine but that made me smile as well.

More helicopter views, torrents of snow/hail crossing the road in some places.

Race officially stopped. They'll take the times at the top of the Iseran. Not good for Ala. Right decision to stop the race Agreed. Right decision, but it's frustrating. Both the confusion, as well as the strategic gameplan the riders were going for. Can't have Bernal winning the tour on this anti-...

Agreed.

GDBFC99

Snow hail fell on the road in the descent, too dangerous for the riders to ride through that.

We're off to one of the camp sites at the weekend near La Rochelle. Looks like it's a bit cooler in that part of France and due to be a bit cooler again next week (hopefully) having the sea close by helps midnight last night was 27° near paris and a refreshing 22 at 7 I really miss Balbriggan :lol:...

Absolutely brilliant season and fitting end. Congrats les rouges et noirs, respect to Mola and his staff as well.

US false flag attacks are inevitable. Any excuse to spread their tentacles of power. Looks russian style :lol: Stop drinking the NATO kool aid. Russia does simply not care about Iran or Israel to the extent of the US. Stop drinking vodka, it's blurring your vision. http://pingours-russie.e-monsite....

Two unbelievable games yesterday and tonight. How many heart attacks???

Two top champagne I can recommend, tasted over the weekend over a birthday event: Drappier, pinot noir, sans soufre / zero dosage. https://shop.r10s.jp/sake-aoihonten/cabinet/trv/imgrc0066929476.jpg Huré Frères .

Starting June 15th Air Canada will have direct flights to/from Bordeaux. I might try this summer a D.C./ Montreal/ Bordeaux, as I'm fed up with Air France and their continuous strikes. FYI, I'm reading the flights between Montreal & Bordeaux were initially on Boeing 737. Due to the recent crash and...

Most precious art work has been taken away. Nazis? Sadly the bishop of Paris said on TV that "the treasure" was safe but that the larger paintings and statues inside couldn't be moved away due to their size and the way they are secured. Guess we'll have to wait for videos from inside to be sure. Ap...

A fire brigade chief said they will likely have to work all night long and that the general structure will be significantly weakened. They sound unsure about the northern belfry. Their biggest fear is that the main vault collapses.
