Italuminium (at least I think it was Italuminium - I'll have to dig up that link) did a week or two ago. He posted a video of what looked like a news report from a race or ride someplace. I couldn't tell exactly because the guy speaking was jabbering away in what I assume was Dutch. But when he got to the name of the bike his pronunciation was clearly French, exactly as it is spelled. Incidentally, on the TT it is spelled "champion mondial", all lowercase.
All I need now is for the snow to go away. And some instructions in English on how to use those muskets.
