We have some fast "tri-guys" that ride for the same shop (we have damned wind tunnel in the shop, after all). Not truly "teammates" since we only see them occasionally on group rides, and never at races. In any event, having ridden with them, I have a lot of respect for what they do. One of the guys can ride almost all of us off his wheel, and averaged around 25mph for the ironman distance last time I saw his times. That's a one hour 40K TT, repeated 4 times without slowing down. Anyone who can do that, well.... he deserves props.
