What will be more refreshing will be to see the company being held liable for their employees' actions. GA put that driver on the road and he/she killed someone during the course of their employment. GA should be held liable on the basis of vicarious liability. I hope the family takes them to the cleaners. It seems that the only thing that will make a company such as GA care about others is when it hurts their bottom line.

Is going to be awesome.

I don't really want to get into the definition of murder and what can be constituted as murder, but if the bus driver intentionally drove closely to the cyclist and a reasonable person could have foreseen that such an action could have caused the cyclist's death, the driver should be charged with murder.

The bus driver should face a murder charge.

No, they've taken that title away from him as well.

More from twitter: First man on the moon Lance Armstrong stripped of all cycling medals. "I'm going to focus more on trumpet playing" said Armstrong "You're all I have left," says Lance Armstrong as he caresses the wife he made out of discarded Livestrong bracelets. By far, Lance Armstrong's darkest legacy will be that he convinced millions of men it was okay to wear bike shorts. Lance Armstrong stripped of 7 Tour de France titles. I'm pretty sure I'm going to have a better Monday than that. Lance Armstrong paid UCI to help fight doping. UCI failed to discover doping despite testing Armstrong 188 times. Armstrong deserves refund.

I bet Lance Armstrong never thought he'd have more testes than Tour de France titles.

I don't really care for the whole steroid thing to be honest, I mean at the end of the day the dude still landed on the moon and all that so let bygones be bygones IMO

So Lance Armstrong was banned for cheating.. I bet the lying bastard didn't really beat cancer either.

Lance Armstrong has flown into New York to deny doping claims. It would have been more convincing if he'd used a plane.

My money's on Greg LeMond

Ja, to be honest, I think for us AGers there's not much point in investing in a pure TT bike, unless you've got your sights set on Kona Whenever I feel the need, I clip the TT bars to my S-Works and do a nice long ride with my seat a bit forward. My times aren't massively faster, but that might have to do with the fact that my normal routes feature lots of climbing and few long, flat roads.

At the moment I'm doing about 10-12 hours a week total, but I'm hoping to get that up to 18-20 in about 3 months' time. That said, my main aim is the full Ironman in April, not the half.

Sounds harder than it is The rest in between helps a lot and I used to swim provincial, so it's pretty much the only sport I knew anything about before I decided to start training for an Ironman. And Chad swam a 51 seconds for the 100m butterfly, so I'm swimming freestyle at less than half his pace You're right, the shorter stuff does help a lot. I try to do at least one session a week of very short stuff with minimal rest in between, i.e. 200m warmup 5x100m negative splits with 15 seconds rest in between 10x50m negative splits with 10 seconds rest in between etc etc There are a ton of cool workouts here: http://ruthkazez.com...imworkouts.html. So I'd normally do something like this: http://ruthkazez.com...mWorkout42.html

I'm a noob to triathlon, so my training schedule doesn't mean much, but I try to do at least 3 sessions a week. My normal session would be 8x500m at about 9 minutes per 500m with 1 minute rest in between.

50m pool? Because that would be impressive.

That post finally made me enter, would have really sucked to do all the prep and not get a spot.

, point taken. Small sponsors, nothing hectic, just enough to be able to still keep it free, but be able to offer some swag and beer for free. Will keep you posted. I think if we can get 10-15 or so people together it would be a fun day.

Really? I thought the run course was pretty cool, but that's just me. Yes, didn't happen this year. I've actually started approaching sponsors (mostly people involved in the brewing of beer), so I'll try again next year/later in the season if I manage to get someone on board.

Agreed. I've commented on this lots of times. I know people have to start somewhere and the organisers need to make provision for people who aren't doing the long route, but I think it's a really bad idea to have all the routes finish along the same stretch of road. The same thing happens at numerous other events, but somehow no one seems to do anything about it. I've lost count of how many times a portly man/woman on a MTB decides to swerve across the road just as a group of roadies come flying past. It's extremely dangerous, especially when there aren't full road closures and cars are doing 120km/h in the opposite lane. //Rant over

Probably because the one guy had to do all the work in that howling wind over the last 5 kilometers.

You forgot to leave a space between the "." and the "at".

My guess would be: 1. Marketing 2. Packaging 3. Nestle doesn't have a horse's arse for a CEO

Guess a bit more than 25 people have seen the conversation now. Who needs a marketing department when you've got old Albe "foot in mouth disease" Geldenhuys as a CEO?

I think you meant "I", not "i"
