Can these be used for all TTs - ie find 2 Tour/Giro/Vuelta routes & compare?

    MTFU would be more appropriate.
    The above may be fact, or fiction, I may be serious, I may be jesting.
    I am not sure. You have no chance.

    now that's cool - I like that. we can use it to compare essentials in life, like eating packets of pork scratchings.

    Which is better, a bag of salt and vinegar crisps, or an episode of the sopranos?

    The epic theory is still in circulation.

    Looks like he did the same thing on Timetrialling forum but got banned and threads deleted. Which will seriously scupper his chances of ever finding his 40 year old TT records from when he was 19...

  • Now that our friend has departed the forum I feel it is safe to comment!

    Was that some elaborate trolling exercise or is the guy in serious need of help?

    I am always hesitant to make jokes about things like that just in case it is the latter and the guy has some genuine mental health issues.

    Yeah yeah, but what flavour of crisp is the best?

    a pint of lime and soda or a pint of blackcurrant and soda for quenching thirst?

    Slightly de-fizzed cider, but not full on still.

    To be honest I don't think people with genuine mental issues bother bike forums, and certainly not about legacy TT times of people most have never heard of.

    If there's a TTAnon forum somewhere, maybe...

    Walkers beef and onion, although ultimate bar snack is a dry roast peanut.

    Thirst quencher is a blackcurrant and soda, at least 1/3rd blackcurrant, no ice, just dilutes it.

    To me it looked like a pretty serious midlife crisis at the very least. It was unlikely to have started out as trolling because he used his real name and details.

    Bloke used to cycle competitively 40 years ago as a teenager. Gave up a long time ago. Found himself in a small central European country with a very strict lockdown. Came up with an awful armchair analysis theory that didn't stand up to any sort of scrutiny. Posted it up and backed it up with his cycling achievements, which are even older than his 25 year old example of "modern". Complete meltdown when it got said scrutiny. Repeat multiple times on different forums.

    These are not the actions of someone who is entirely well mentally!

    Its the response of every crazy inventor that gets a 'lol no' from The Dragons too tho, just with the filter removed.
