truly ridiculous!
at my race last week there i caught up with some of my younger teammates after they`d finished their race, and went over to commiserate on another fairly mediocre performance in which they all got shelled out the back, to be rather shocked by the new gizmos they all had - top of the line earpieces and radios!
their race was a THIRTY KM jaunt around the course! i asked them what they were talking about, and they said `tactics`. brilliant. i have a feeling the `tactical conversation` might have gone something like this...
`how are you?`
`f*cked`
`and you?`
`wheeze pant groan`
`where`s my mummy???`
`can i fake a puncture?`
i felt like giving them a good slap...
