I've recently moved to the Middle East, and every Wednesday night a local race track allows people of all abilities to do laps for a few hours on their bike. It's jam packed full of people on pig-ugly Cervelo tri bikes all being very serious.
However, last week, I nearly fell off laughing when they all (and myself) somehow got overtaken by a guy on an absolute rat of a 90s mountain bike...with full tread tyres...and tri bars! Not sure why posting in here, but I immediately thought of this thread. Will get pictures next week. I'm not sure if the guy's greatness cancels out the anti?
It was truly delicious seeing the absolute seethe on the faces of the Tri folk on their expensive bikes.
