DOJ Trump Special Councel Jack Smith as a cyclist

NYT’s coverage of newly appointed Trump special counsel Jack Smith says he is delayed to the USA “recovering from a bicycle accident” in Haag. Anyone who knows what kind of cycling he is doing? Dutch commuting or a road warrior? From he the photos I would guess he is more into gravel or single speed.
Who is Trump Special Counsel Jack Smith

I have Sano blocked, so his post doesn’t count, so I am still Post 3. So there you rabble rouser and you should probably go change your underwear. Now we will get it blocked, fur sure.

He rides a steel bike with downtube shifters because everything else is just dumb and the result of the influence of Big Bike.

The thread should be locked and then deleted simply on the basis of how badly The Hague was misspelled.

Edit: see post 23.

"The Hague" is what it's called in English. In the Netherlands, it's "Den Haag." I'd say it's the English who've done the misspelling.
