I'm assuming it just got lost in translation that he wants to see how his fit on his bike is. Not if he is fit ha

You guys want pre-ride shots of my hairy Fred belly or post ride (when it's hairy and sweaty)?

You can try but be prepared for plenty of ridicule along with an occasional nugget of wisdom.
Realize that fit is a dynamic process so it makes sense, if possible, to post a short video of you riding on rollers or a trainer, with a few positions (tops, drops, hoods).

They eat much more than you and i do. I eat 3500 calories on a cheat day. Those dudes during training have to eat like 5000 calories every day just to maintain. The type of food though may not be ideal but they do eat tons.

could use a longer stem. looks very upright on the bike for being in the drops.
Also, should look forward to avoid being hit by a car.
