Quality Slowtwitch/IMJ Threads

Yeah, they didn’t like that at all, did they?
I did it in the facebook comments section,again.

I can’t see how a new tribike before 70.3 worlds news is at the top of the site?

Also, gravel: Why is this on a triathlon site? I am yet to come across a gravel triathlon…

I like the ad (not sure why they have American accents, looks like it’s in Eng.)

I don’t like Empfield, that guy is so smug and definitely a hypocrite.

Quality thread(without the sarcasm)

https://forum.slowtwitch.com/forum/Slowtwitch_Forums_C1/Triathlon_Forum_F1/Gustav_Iden_here._Ask_me_anything_P6626013-4/

Gustav Iden’s AMA thread has resurrected with him posting a little in there. The things he had to deal with (forgetting nutrition, broken bottle cages, borrowed helmet, borrowed aero bars on his roadie etc. etc.) and still winning. Not bad for a B race.

Been following for past couple of days, Gustav Iden seems pretty down to earth. He doesn’t seem to be the most organised, but takes on whatever mishaps happen on the day and just deals with them.

Compare that with Ruedi Wild, who complained facebook that he retired due to dehydration because on the ride the water bottles they handed out wouldn’t stay in the bottle cages (they handed out regular bottles not bidons)

In that case, then surely you’d chug the water after the aid station and throw the bottle? I have an elastic retainer on my behind-the-saddle cage. Plus no issue if you use a BTA system of some kind.

Guy sounds like a pu55y.

Which they were completely clear about during the briefing, so I can only imagine that also occurred during the Pro briefing!

That was my point, we all had to deal with it

I do look forward to this one every year. Some of the comments are hilarious, whether intentionally or otherwise!

I took the liberty of some very amateur photoshopping to confirm Anne Haug’s head is in fact bigger than her body.

I’m smelling something. Hence my post.

That’s good …it’s better than the Wales v South Africa game! Hope the second half is better and the Welsh can smash the Boks

A funny one rather than shocking on

This might come across the wrong way, but that also shows either off-season, or (understandably) how far she’s let her swimming slide to prioritise bike-run. That would have been an easy session for her 10 years ago, she’d have been capable of doing 100x100 off 1:15 send off.

I’ve kept away from that thread; people will be patronising her or acting like fanboys.
