I look forward to the coming season, when you will doubtless be getting under 18:00 for 10 miles and 46:00 for 25. Or perhaps as more of a long race specialist, you'll concentrate on beating his 3:23:03 100-mile PB.
The FUCT boys are racing for a 'team', in domestic TTing you're lucky if you even get a discount on your skinsuit in exchange for riding for a sponsored club.
In 2000? Probably no wind tunnels, no power meters and negligible sponsorship.
