How dare you not recognizing the Delfino di Bibbione aka Pellizzotti aka climb decently only once a year but only in Italy! :twisted:

And I was thinking "that guy looks a lot like Heinrich Haussler". Pellizzotti, easy, haha.

I too miss the blue sleeves. In fact that type of no raglan torso/arm contrast was the main inspiration for the rework of our club kit this year.

Thank you :D , but that's not what I meant.
I mean it doesn't look like it matches the rest of the kit, even though it looks like the same colour is on the jersey,but it's more subtle there, while on the bibs it looks big and attracts the eye...I don't know how to explain it.

That's what graphics are supposed to do; bring your eye to the sponsor logo.

So the women only got to race for 38 minutes at the Namur World Cup. They aren't that happy about the shortness of it either, which is fair enough, 4 laps is pretty short. They could have easily gotten another lap in

4 laps @ 38:49 is ok by rules, 5 laps @ 48:31 is too much
