I think RicodJour won one. That was in between winning the US Open and
the Tour de France.

The L'Equipe article said that Patrice Ciprelli is spending a lot of
time on specialized equipment websites where you can get custom stuff.
He thought up a different handlebar and got some artisan in Finland to
build it for Jeannie.

Speaking of which, in today's road race:

Results

Elite women

1 Jeannie Longo Ciprelli (Team Pro Feminin Les Carroz) 3.03.51
2 Christel Ferrier Bruneau (Team Lot-et-garonne) @ 3.05

-ilan

Good grief, look at the margin. Maybe she will retire next year! You think?

It would be right up there with winning the Heisman trophy for batting
prowess.

I guess the case could be made that the legendary mathematician who used
to tap Mrs. Nobel was the first and only mathematician to score a Nobel.
Unfortunately, Mr. Nobel never married; supposedly it's his then-fiancee
who had interest in root extraction. So we're left with a legendary
mathematician scoring a putative Nobel. Not quite the same.

jyh.

So you nail a climate scientist but you score a mathematician.
