While these guys are physically strong riders, why is it that so many chose not to commute on a regular basis... it would only add to their training.
Do they ever train with any gear? No! They're like the marathon runner who used to work with my husband. She would drive to work, pretend to work for a couple of hours, then go for a run right past her home. When asked why she didn't just run to work (showers were available), she said she would never run with a pack of clothes. She also wouldn't consider driving only once or twice a week and storing clothes at work. There was just something abhorrent about combining a workout with anything utilitarian. My experience with tri-folks and many of today's version of roadies is largely like this.
