Thursday Night - Hour of Power

He must have been a complete cunt

Should have said DAS!

Did a lap today on my brakless spinny trick bike. Much to my shock I overtook a guy in full garmin cervelo kit on a crabon cervelo with crabon wheels.

As I passed him I said he wasnt going fast enough.

Thats exactly what fully Rapha lycrad, fully carbon biked up people, love to hear as someone in cut off jeans and a death metal t-shirt on their spinny trick bike flies by

ha bet he dug deep notched up his i-Gears into fast mode and tried his best to keep up with you !!

ha

I was just envious of his enve 45 wheels. they would have looked great on my road bike

Are we (the forum as a whole) still on the 'OMGZ I totally overtook a carbon roadie on my fixiewixie!' phase? >>>

The only thing that'll look great on your road bike is a new frame, X ;)

sick burn

Any possibility he was warming down / between intervals?

By the side of the road changing a tub?

He must have been a complete cunt

Can't tell if serious...

He probably slowed down in case some silly Brakless so and so tried to draft him

The world is increasingly full of people on carbon fibre wunderbikes who are not only slow but seem to have no idea how to pedal properly or handle a bike. In my day they were called 'AGNIs' (All the Gear and No Idea), these days they mostly seem to be MAMILs.

In other news bears defecate in woods and benedict XVI is a Catholic.

God dammit people. Let me revel in my overtake!!

Oh Pete. In your day all this were fields.

God dammit people. Let me revel in my overtake!!

If it was plausible without any severe handicap on the part of the geared rider, we would be cheering you instead of speculating. Honest.

He slow, me fast

Just because no one else has said it yet...

Cool Story Bro!

Pictures or it didn't happen!

Matches description....

Wait is that Alan Sugar?!

Should have said DAS!

should have DAS!

new kit, old bike. Isn't he rich or something?

Isn't he rich or something?

Looks like he spent a fair portion of his wealth on spacers.

The break down by the Daily Mail

"Sir Alan’s bike
Pinarello 'Prince of Spain' limited edition. Named after Spanish cyclist Alejandro Valverde
Carbon frame: £3,250
Campagnolo Bora carbon wheel set, with ceramic bearings: £1,900
Campagnolo Super Record 11-speed group set with double chainring: £1,700
Total: £6,800"

By my calculation that leaves him with £ -50 for bars seatpost etc
