I think they have decided to invent their own version of English. James Joyce did it better. Seriously, the copy editing has been in the toilet these last few months. Is anyone from the current incarnation of Cyclingnews reading this group to comment on why your site reads like a remedial grade 6 english class?

So has the website, apparently. It's reporting a problem loading the page. I want to know who won today. To hell with Floyd.
