Agathocles - To Serve… To Protect.
Dedicated to Spain Congress protests of last monday.
1951: Until 1948 only one foreigner had won here, the Swiss Heiri Suter in 1923. But then, three years in a row, a fearsome Italian tamed the elements, the cobblestones, and even Briek Schotte, “the Last of the Flandrians.” With this third victory, Fiorenzo Magni is hailed as “the Lion of Flanders.”

So it was the Aussie Nationals Road Race on Sunday, it was also the Belgian CX Nats, guess which race I checked the results for first.

Still trying to work out why Doom get so much more traction than Hiatus. “Way of Doom” is still my favourite 90’s crust track.
