Great page Jeff, I like the colimaçonnage finish on that wheel!
: Mark: Is it correct that Côtes de Genève are sometimes called
: "Geneva Stripes"? Are you OK with this name for this
: finish?
Yes, but it's horribly prosaic compared to Côtes de Genève, isn't it? I'd always rather use the more evocative name.
Same goes for Grand Prix, I never understood why some countries translate it rather than use the French, redolent with history and tradition. Italian can get away with "Gran Premio" perhaps, but the German "Großer Preis" has always irked me for some reason. Imagine the TV announcements "...and next, on BBC1, the Big Prize of Monaco"... :/
