Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

For those of you who missed last night's display of greatness, here it is:


Toronto played tough, and the Sixers looked sloppy in the first half. But Philly kept chipping away, eventually sending the game into OT. Looked like a second OT was inevitable.

On the pro cycling front, it's dicey. None of the pay services are allowed to broadcast in Mexico. I found a free service that's broadcasting the GCN signal. Somehow. Sometimes. Occasionally I'll get the message that the signal is blocked by the owner. But it always comes back. Just have to wait it out. Then this morning we had no internet. It came back in time for the podium scene.

Thanks. Sometimes I get mix things up. Hoping the Suns go down because the Sixers cannot seems to beat them. But I'm not betting on it.

If it were a team other than the Pelicans, the Suns might be in trouble with Booker out the next two plus games... but it's just the Pelicans - the Suns will get by them and Booker will return.

The Sixers have a ways to go before worrying about the Suns, though.

The first 2 games were pretty one sided, even though Toronto has had moments. They don't seem to be able to deal with Embid. I didn't watch last night, though.
I am surprised the Bulls took one from the Bucks.

Paris Roubaix was on CNBC. Since the demise of NBCSN some sports are on basic cable, like Supercross.
