[@MFish7980]

Thank you brother Salambini Caramelo you took us back to the old times !! I use to love the cycling game when I was back in Asmara, Eritrea. Brother Caramelo you mentioned some discriminations during the Amhara Regime. But what will you say now , after all the bitter struggle and the Amhara's are kicked out by Force from Eritrea; Now because of Isseyas , they are back in Eritrea and even Eritreans are dying with them in Ethiopia !! So SAD !!! Good to see you brother !! Ciao ( Chaw) ! Ciao !!

Salambini grande per la prima volta l' avevo visto in Asmara, podarsi nel 74 o 75, mentre c'era il corso ero piccolo, Tesfalidet nell 83 credo viveva a Roma, che bei tempi sono passati saluti🇪🇷
