Yeah, well it's a testament to technology today that it actually sounds rather plausible.

I liked this part.
the iBrain system also provides an answer for those times when the director sportif requests the rider to do something and he doesn’t do it, sometimes even feigning that he didn’t hear the instruction. With the car-mounted iPad, the team director can give the rider a tiny electric jolt to encourage him.

Suppose Superman agreed to restrict his super strength while in a race. Should he be considered in violation were he to use his super hearing? Also, he is the type that you would never want at the front. He could use his super breathe to propel the whole team.

That could make you sound even more crazy that those d-nozzles walking around the supermarket talking into their blue tooths. At least then you see the headset eventually.
