People are getting a tad overequipped these days. I just competed in the Escape from Alkatraz triathlon, and i noticed that as I biked back (it is an out and back course) the equipment did not change so much from front to back.

Now why am I saying "WHY?" because on the run I saw a female WALKING HER BRAND NEW CERVELO P2 WITH ZIPP WHEELS UP THE HILL!!!!!

Just for the record I am riding a steel Nishiki from 1982, I wanted her bike, and WHY????
