Some of the pro's ride Euro stage races in the off season. So trust me' date=' they're quite capable of handling themselfs in road races

WOW, flippen amazing! For that distance! So if I understand correct, they don't allow slipstreaming? Then it's an super human effort in that case.

Following distance is 10m i.e. no slipstream and they've got ref's on motorbikes monitoring this and giving out red cards (penalty tent) for violations.

 

But remember that IM routes are generally much flatter than biker routes. But having said that, they do this 180k stint after 3.8k's of ocean fun and they take the bike reletively easy

...cause the race only start with 10k's to go of the 42 in the run...that's when IRONMAN STARTS!!!
