MANILA, Philippines — ABRAHAM "BAMBOL" TOLENTINO and David Lappartient—both presidents of their respective national Olympic committee (NOC) and cycling federation—met in Harbin on Friday and discussed significant topics bordering on their sport and the International Olympic Committee (IOC).
"From a casual conversation—hellos and how are you?—to the more significant topics concerning cycling and the forthcoming IOC presidential elections," said Tolentino, president of both the Philippine Olympic Committee and PhilCycling, from China during the opening ceremony of the Harbin Ninth Asian Winter Games.
