While we're complaining about the TdF management we ought to mention that
the UCI would be screwing up big-time if they try to make a super category
of pro racing that includes all sorts of countries.

Better for each continent to have its own racing schedules and then having
one "World Championship" that has the top picks from each continent.

What do you think?

Antarctica Tour Assos Thermal Body Suit (Yellow).

As an aside, apparently Antartica will have some significant cols
when the ice melts.

Don't wait! Dome A is at 4000 meters elevation, but something
like 3000 meters of that is ice.

The Tour of Antarctica bikes will be suited to Fat Masters:
