I’m sure they’ll catch this grinning moron very quickly. Since she fled, I’m also sure that when she’s caught she’ll get the full sentence. “Allez, Opi-Omi … rendre visite à votre petite-fille en prison!”

I guess events are going to have to start putting up large, obvious cameras away from the action, so that glory-hounds who want to get on TV but aren’t going to pay attention to what’s happening are segregated for safety.

There are two things I am loathe to ride in the immediate vicinity of. One is cars, the other is roadies. As to how I tend to rank that list, that’s very situationally dependent.
