Perhaps the point you're trying to make is there's no substitute for training and raw talent, isn't it the same in cycling now, the bloke who turns up on the club run with the 6k Pinarello or Colnago, gets dropped on the first hill, or gives you a "whose this twat" stare because you turn up on a winter bike with 'guards, believe you me we've a few in the club I ride for, one bloke earlier this year turned up on his 5k Wilier, looked at me like I was a piece of shit, I never said anything to him when I caught him for 21 minutes in our club 25 at Easter. I rest my case.
