The Guest Rider met a minor celebrity today. We had ridden over to the Falls where she was photographed with a member of the 1958 French national cycling team. Note that the Frenchman is wearing an authentic replica jersey of the 1958 team.As is usual with such replica jerseys in bicycling circles, the jersey displays the home town of the rider on the front as well as a product placement for the long retired rider's sponsor.
Or maybe she and I were at the Falls and Bob stepped out of the crowd and offered the opportunity for both of us to be in the picture.
The FIBA World Basketball Championships kicked off today in Turkey. In Izmir, France, fielding its B-team, one which does not include any of France's NBA players, defeated defending World Champions and pre-tournament favorite Spain by the score of 72-66. The USA defeated Croatia in a game played in Istanbul.

I'm going to guess "b" -- for Bob. How's he doing? If I'm wrong, tell Gino that a frenchman stole his helmet.
