Logged on expecting to see the internet had got to work on Groenewegen’s glasses and surprisingly found nothing. I suppose it is early for the US posters.
Helps nose your way in by the barriers
Yeah, I know. It’s the one important thing you had to have, and you forgot it? How does that happen?
Haha. I specialize in descending
I forgot my helmet to a race, no helmet no race so borrowed one from a 12yo girl.
Tri race, forgot my wetsuit. No wetsuit, no race…hired one.
So I’m not throwing stones, but…no bike?
Gold! A 12 y/o’s helmet fit you? I guess the rule doesn’t say it has to fit
But why no race without wetsuit? That’s not mandated.
No it didn’t fit, but the really embarrassing bit was meeting her mum in the City three days later to return the helmet. I didn’t know either of these people! One of many reasons triathletes are great.
Wetsuits are rarely optional in the UK, despite the natural insulation I carry. While Blu has a body shape more akin to mine, the don’t fat percentage is not remotely similar…more fool him - I get the buoyancy gainz!
I see you’re a downhill specialist like me
Ok @steg666, I will get us started…
Gold
Isn’t the quest for ‘aero’ getting a little ridiculous? And does it come in titanium? (If you’re going for that, might as well go all in?)
Forgot a helmet after a long drive to get there, and figured ‘I’m not going to waste the trip’, and took off for a 90 minute rip, and got the strangest looks from people ‘He’s a rebel!’, ‘He’s breaking the rules!’. I certainly hoped for nothing to happen, and swore I’d never forget it again.
Temperature: Around here the water temps tend to be in the 60’s, but I’ve heard lately that it’s running over 80, so far, and the summer just got started! It’s insane… Will any fish be precooked when you pull them out? (Not that I’d ever eat them, but many do)
False. Pros are committed to carbon fibre.
We, enthusiastic non-dentists with too much money, focus on titanium.
Not sure if it‘s in the right thread: There is now Continental Aero 111 for around 120€ per tire (!).
It has been spotted at the tour.
(I first thought it was a joke actually, that’s why I’m posting it here.)
I’m taking in xacto to gatorskins now
