swim 1h, walk the run in 6h and use this for the ride...with these colors, I can pretend it's a Cervelo... (for the fans, yes it is Biaggi's bike)

yeah, how terrible, I've seen guys lighting up cigars at the finish of IMC,. a bit different from lighting up a cigarette but still...

No need for a disk on that thing, not sure you would gain any aero advantage. If you were to put Rotors on it, you'd have to at least go with the 63 big ring, on the back.

I run with a guy that does this everyday we run together. He can run a half marathon in 84minutes. Shits me.

Funny stuff - you can smoke a cigar DURING the run and still win with that thing!

You still might not win. If the surf is up it could take you two hours to do the swim! :)

At the Half at PCB in '03 the surf was 500 feet tall and dragging small skyscrapers into the ocean. Giant squid were hanging off the buildings yelling insults at the "swimmers". PCB had been declared a disaster area by the President BEFORE the race, but IMNA didn't get the news until they'd left town. One newby "swimmer", and you know this is true, was swept to Cancun in the surf, borrowed a bike and made the bike cutoff only to be DQ'd on the run for having her number on backwards.

And people say there is no God. Tsk, tsk.

I like the six spoke wheels, maybe a rear disk and rotorcranks would make you faster ;)

The stem looks a little short too.
