Agreed: that is lame, lame, lame.

I get that a lot of the flat and rolling TT segments are probably scored by drafting or a wind assist. I know I've scored a few QOMs that way (and in many cases, the times I'm trying to beat are from gals who hung at the back of the A group).

But a grinding, snot-filled, near-vomit-inducing uphill effort is something special. I'd flag the e-bike, too.
