So why when Tim Don, A. Brownlee or Holly L, are off the front EVERYONE ON SLOWTWITCH yells moto draft help. But today???We all watched the race, Kanute was not blatantly drafting the moto like Brownlee. I don't think I ever saw the moto in front of him at any point. We did see the whole group behind Kienle sucking wheel on SK's moto.

WHY are we not raking guys for not giving us the best race talent. LeBron doesn't sit out in the finals he sits out a road trip in Texas in march.
I think anyone with a legitimate chance to win 70.3 worlds was there. The exception was Frodo which is really focusing on Kona, has won 70.3 worlds before and he has nothing to prove.
Sanders won ITU worlds so he can call himself world champion so I guess he deserves some shade.

i'd disagree unless you are saying Gomez was the only one with a change to win - and since he did, I guess that's a fair argument.
Otherwise - Andy, Tim and Ben were not there.

Did you watch the race? Seemed every time he was on camera the Moti was beside him, not in front of him.
Same thing with the chase pack, so not only was there kienle's draft, but the camera moto beside him would have made for a massive draft effect.

Oh my comments were not about what actually happened, but rather the speculation that goes on.
Remember after last years 70.3 talk about the mens race and why some choose not to do it. Can't break away from the group??? Or ride solo?
EXCUSES for not racing well. SAYING IT"S NOT A FAIR RACE!!!
While Ben did it??? So can we say other excuses about draft distance and pack racing are no longer valid?
Technique will always last longer then energy production. Improve biomechanics, improve performance.

Yeah! Totally! I just don't get get it.
People must be crazy for calling out blatant Moto Drafting and then not calling out somebody who wasn't blatantly Moto drafting. What's wrong with people?

But your first comment was about why no one was bitching about drafting the lead moto today. And the answer is that Ben was not drafting the lead moto. Which anyone who watched the race would know. And since they knew that there was no drafting the lead moto, they didn't bitch about it. Or should they have ignored reality and bitched a about drafting motos m to validate your thought?
(am I the only one missing something here?)

I never saw proof the others were. THATS WHY!!! And you mentioned the pack and motos around them so they should have the same assistances.
look at the slowtwitch pictures a few motorcycles riding beside them.
I am just pointing out slowtwitch habits.
