Many thx They are riding with no pressure.. must be a nice change for both of them..after many many years of racing..now they get to ride. Sure they ride fast but under no pressure to perform Any of our local hubber spot them in A batch? You can't ride along side them and not have a chat .

I couldn't do it the next day and the next and the next with the profiles that await them. Some will be battling the clock every day
PhilipV Posted March 20, 2017 Posted March 20, 2017 Maybe more riders should invest in full face helmets looking at the amount of facial injuried. Sent from my SM-G900F using TapatalkMaybe more riders should invest in quark shockwizz rather than quark power meters? Okay I'll go to bed now. No more stirring for tonight.

Gen Posted March 20, 2017 Posted March 20, 2017 Just watched the hi lites package on SS. Flippen machines. Everybody, not just the pro's but everybody taking part. #absolutelegenendsEspecially the amateurs.. these are the real warriors.. the guys that have spent months trying to fit in training in between jobs and family life..those guys that have the later starts and ride in the worst weather conditions trying to make cut off.. Apparently 74 teams DNF today not sure how many of those didn't make cut of..but that's a big number for 1 day.
Bonus Posted March 20, 2017 Posted March 20, 2017 It's a lot of money to "DNF" on day one. Imagine explaining that . . . .
