Well, again, there's quite a lot of large-ocean-hopping going on there... I understand there's so many factors involved in sorting the schedule, but does seem their efforts to go Carbon Neutral may get thwarted by immense travel.

Who the hell puts Canada in the middle of the European races?

[โ€“] BURN@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

iirc itโ€™s there because they canโ€™t race later in the year with the other American races due to weather. If they wait until that late in the year the weather in Canada wonโ€™t be super conducive to running a good race.

The continents are kind of arbitrary and where you grew up determines what you're taught. Afaik in South America they teach America as one continent rather than north and south, for example.

I was taught that America is a continent and then if you want you split it into southern and northern regions.
