I was doing a little trolling. That recent docu in the states basically insinuated Sky were using motors because their Pinarellos were 800 grams heavier than the rest and that was the claimed weight of that chap's motorised wheels.

Literally everyone was else 'err, Pinarellos'

Sorry but you're using internet terminology wrongly. The internet is serious business. Acceptable phrases are "I was doing some digging", "I was doing some trawling" etc.
