    Maybe some of you could pitch in and get him to do all the work at the front on the next BR. Or hire him for a leadout :-). Currently only $1.

    "position critique"... yeah right.. we'll be the judge of that... "hey tri boy, why are you off the back on the hills?" :P

    I was about to submit that to alt.humor.best-of-usenet, but then I
    figured

    1) You buggered up the URL

    2) Maybe this requires a slight bit too much explanation for the lay
    audience. Pity.

    Close, but no cigar for you!

    No no no -- you misunderstood. Yes, the URL was stuffed, but easily
    fixable (although I'd have to explain that in my submission, which
    would detract from teh fun'ni a tiny bit), but also because teh fun'ni
    would only come naturally for us cycling geeks, and perhaps if I had
    to explain the concept of of leadouts and tri-hards, then again, a
    case of explaining the joek.

    There needs to be a alt.humor.best-of-cycling-usenet where cycling
    fun'nis can be sent.

    St Helena's definitely - can you say sand?

    Thredbo's probably a bit easier although Snakes & Ladders would be
    interesting on drop bars. Stop giving me silly ideas Dave.
