Dear Stringbean, at the risk of BigH appearing and calling me coarse let me say - you are the NOB!

I am a granny, I help my partner run his business, I do part time daycare to my grandkids, getting my son through matric, supporting my daughter and son in law with as much babysitting as possible while they train for ironman. I ended up GC 464 - pretty piss poor in your eyes I am sure but I made cut off with 90 minutes plus to spare most days except for where severe mechanicals and a really bad crash spat me out to the back of the field. So I don't deserve to be there - please climb off the high horse you are attempting to sit on you ignorant, arrogant little person! I trained as hard as I could and to the best of my limited ability clearly but I finished and I have the medal and a whole lot of pride to go along with that.

 

Insults unnecessary...He is referring to normal unfit grannies who came unprepared, not fit super grannies.

Insults appear to be standard hub dialogue so I was merely replying in language he was bound to understand! I felt insulted and I imagine a few other "backmarkers" out there would feel the same!

It was never stated that anyone does not deserve to be there, it was stated that the back-markers do not warrant his sympathy. Do the the back-markers want our sympathy?

No, he kinda stated that they don't belong there.

 

I think you need to go watch those back markers,sorry they shouldnt be there.If your aim is just to finish the epic in the 10 hrs every day its a very easy ride.For a race of this standars and for UCI points it has set the level too low.

 

Oh wait a minute, I see he did say sorry, that makes everything OK.

That`s uncalled for, anyone who paid the entry deserves to be there, and attempting the Epic with limited training time takes guts.
