My point being: many riders have been born in a different country, but represented another. Their result and representation stands as the country ridden for on the day of the competition.

But rode under the Guatemalan flag… as many other nationalities and winners have. Wiggins being one.

British β€œregistered” team. They don’t support the NRS or racing domestically other than Alice, Grace and a couple of other riders. I feel desperately sorry for the riders, but good to see the back of the charlatans running the team

#notmyorangecat being VERY needy today. Refused to eat chicken breast until I’d lightly fried it, shunned my Zipp stem, choosing instead to lick his nuts. This dude is living his best life… twice over as I found he lives six houses up πŸ˜‚
