Tour of Oman 2024 overview

The Tour of Oman returns in 2024 for the 13th edition of the five-day race, taking place from February 10 to 14. The race, which is the longest-running major stage race in the Middle East, will once again centre around the final climb of the Jabal Al Akhdhar (Green Mountain), as a mix of WorldTour and ProTour teams battle for early victories and UCI points at the 2.Pro stage race.

While last year’s winner Matteo Jorgenson (Visma-Lease a Bike) will not be on the start this year, the rest of the potential contenders look set to be strong. Adam Yates and Isaac del Toro will lead the charge for UAE Team Emirates for the GC contest, Fabio Jakobsen (dsm-firmenich PostNL) will look for opportunities in the sprints, Matej Mohorič (Bahrain Victorious) will be on the hunt for stage opportunities and the young Soudal Quick-Step duo of Paul Magnier and Luke Lamperti will be sure to mix it up in a few finishes.

As far as the route goes, the Tour of Oman is nothing if not predictable, with the same format of five road stages punctuated with a final mountain day up Green Mountain on tap again for 2024. Green Mountain is a short but steep climb, weighing in at 5.7km at 9.9%, and will come at the end of five days of racing.

While the final stage will once again finish on the familiar slopes of Green Mountain, the first four stages will mix different terrain from the hilly Middle Eastern country with an assortment of punchy stages and sprint opportunities on offer. Last year the race skewed towards the climbers with steep finishes on three of the five stages. While the profiles have yet to be released for the 2024 edition, expect more of the same.

Universal Studios tram crashes, injuring 15 riders

R ebecca Miller was prepared for a killer shark, King Kong and other make-believe frights when she joined the Universal Studios Hollywood backlot tour Saturday evening with her family — what she wasn't expecting was the intrusion of some real-life drama.

Miller, her husband and two children got on one of the park's last trams of the night and were behind a four-car tram that crashed and injured 15 people, who were taken to hospitals with non life-threatening injuries, authorities said. Her family's tram, which they boarded close to 8:30 p.m., had passed the King Kong and T. rex attraction and had just made it to a display of famous movie vehicles when it suddenly stopped.

"We're like, 'Ok, maybe they are having technical difficulties,'" recalled Miller, 39, of Victorville, who was in the first car of her tram train along with park employees. "And then as it went on, it was like, this is a little odd. Then their radios started getting messages and we noticed a whole change in their demeanor."

The Los Angeles County Fire Department received an emergency call from the park shortly after 9 p.m. and responded to the scene.

The last car on the tram ahead of Miller's struck a rail when it was traveling down a hill near a parking structure, Los Angeles County Sheriff's Lt. Maria Abal said Saturday evening. "There was some type of issue with the brakes. We don't exactly know what yet," he said.

The park's tram can hold more than 100 people, Abal said, but it was unclear how many were onboard at the time of the incident. The collision caused several passengers to fall out of the car, according to the Sheriff's Department, which provides security at the park.

In a statement late Saturday, the theme park confirmed that an incident took place “that resulted in multiple minor injuries.”

“We are working to support our guests and understand the circumstances that led to the accident,” Universal Studios Hollywood said in a statement to The Times. Universal Studios did not respond to a request for an update early Sunday,

A Fire Department dispatcher said that although it was initially believed one rider was critically injured, that could not be confirmed Sunday.

The crash will be investigated by the California Highway Patrol, which could not provide comment early Sunday.

Miller said her family was at the park for an event that drew thousands of Girl Scouts from around the region who were top sellers of cookies in the Scouts' fundraiser, including her 8-year-old daughter Alanna.

She said her family was stuck on the tram until about 10:15 p.m. and stayed at the park, which remained open for the Girls Scouts event.

A passenger on an earlier tram that evening said their vehicle was stopped about 8 p.m. because of smoke and a noxious odor apparently emanating from brake pads. The passengers were transferred to another tram, according to an email sent to The Times.

The Universal Studios tram tour, called the World-Famous Studio Tour, is a signature attraction at the theme park. The park is celebrating the 60th anniversary of the ride beginning next week.

The tour goes behind the scenes of movie sets, including those of "Jaws" and Jordan Peele's "Nope," and offers a look into the last 50 years of Universal films.
