Tasmyn has got to a world champs final I think. Atleast one. Porbably came last, or no better than second last.

That translates into gold in the pool. See the media go ape over Brooke Hanson's multi gold at world short course. That standard is comparing bay crits to the Tour.

Bay crits < Tour = Shortcourse swimming < le tour

The only reason we go nuts over swimmers is cos they bring home a shiny colour medal, yet their "pool of competitors" is as small as the nation of Burkina Faso. Tho the tour de Faso is a hugly esteemed event, where smart neo-imperial Belgies running 2005 Ridleys and dura-ace, are running agianst riders on vintage Gitanes on suntour gruppos.

Hell Ride > Tour de Faso

P.S not a fan of Tamsyn, was a fan of Pittman PD (pre-drama). I think both her coaches, King, or whatever his name, who owns KingClub Re-Creation gym in Sandy, he put on far too much muscle on her. And Rawlinson obviously prefers Wrestling matches to sex, or kinky wrestling sex and has not got her to strip off all that extra weight. She is far too heavy.

Phil King was her coach, evereyone knows he is married to Debbie Flintoff.
