Why, are we going to track his identity down and out him and call him a troll?

Yeah, it varies -- people are different. My former-tdf-er friend took up coaching. He rides a little with his kids and with some of his clients. Does corporate events on the bike some. Every so often he'll show up at some informal racer event and lay waste with almost no training. Some pro MTB racer challenged him to a roller race at a bar in CO -- taunted with some inappropriate remarks, and he laid waste again. He's won a few triathlons. Took up MMA and was pretty good at that (~35 lbs over race weight, moderately lean). Really competitive, so he kind of has to be doing something athletic. The miles in his legs are not to be taken lightly -- strong like bull.
Well KL was at the top of the heap.
Once you've been there, nobody can deny you ever again
