Some Journeys and Meetings

Been a while since I sat down to write something. Continuing from last time as I had predicted Alberto Contador won the Giro by a whopping margin of over 6 minutes from his nearest challenger. However he maybe stripped of the crown by Court of Arbitration of Sports for a miniscule amount of Clenbuterol found in his blood during last year's Tour de France. His case is not going to be resolved before the Tour and we may end up with a situation that he maybe stripped of 3 grand tour wins. 
Quizzing meanwhile has been in full flow in Calcutta with everyone doing quizzes right left and centre. The grand old man did his usual quiz which was a total disaster. The reviewers had a field day ripping apart the quiz as it had so many mistakes that it makes Christina Aguilera's performance at the Superbowl seem well coordinated. The old man has lost it or his cronies are giving him questions which he hasn't checked.
Went for 2 quizzes in the gateway to the northeast. Met some very nice people and ended up winning a good amount of cash with the doc. Now my focus shifts to the most famous cycle race of all- 'Tour de France'. I will try to write a pre-race analysis of favourites and stages to watch out for. Till then sayanora all.
