Interesting to mark Hammarling as potential Olympic candidate, seeing as he's retiring from CX after this season. I guess he could make a one-off comeback but it's not planned for the moment

Oh right
I meant Mark Hammarling, obviously
EDIT: Wait, did you just say Mark? You meant Mikel? wait... I'm confused
EDIT 2: haha wait I get it. mark was a verb. Mark Hammarling as a candidate

Yes! Perfect race for Sylvain and putting him in the World Cup Lead
Guess that means I have to remember to write a blog post
Thanks for the great report Ian

Bad, bad... this was a race where Vague should shine and just like last year, he lost ground. Though Olympic Race can and will be much different, it doesn't bode well so far. Lipawsky is suddenly so damn consistent, he is even scary close in UCI classification now. Van Dyck is Ian Butler incognitio.
Welling out. ;(

van Duck needs a controller now, it's going to be a pain perhaps Ian could give us the odd update? Nice report though Ian! Also is that really Goldie and Milan with identical UCI points

Never, you hear!
@Shonak: You're catching on to me! and yes, Lipawsky is the only one who can sort of match Vague in the UCI and even getting closer and closer.
@jandal: Yes, best buddies with equal amount of points!

This would be interesting, to have Ian as a player involved.

Thanks Tamijo!

Both. I like originality and realism but this... kinda feels a step too far for the game.

Basically it was just a way to get the race postponed/changed/cancelled/future unclear and since it was Japan my mind jumped to an earthquake. As Japan is vulnerable that way.
Since it's a fictional earthquake with fictional people, I don't see how this should be a problem. Nobody was hurt and I don't think this disrespects actual victims of earthquakes.

If you or anyone else takes offence in this, I'll take it down, of course.
