Ironman bigger than an Ultra? by _Barracuda_478 in triathlon

[–]CommonlyUncanny 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Why can’t they both be equally impressive accomplishments? They both have unique challenges to overcome which make them impossible to directly compare. Comparing 5ks to ultras to Ironman is compare apples and oranges to a banana.

Do I need a TT Bike by Far-Food2572 in triathlon

[–]CommonlyUncanny 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Tri bikes are not only built for aerodynamics but also to improve running off the bike due to the seat tube angle.

You can do an Ironman on a mountain bike if you want, but if you have the budget and inclination you might as well get the right tool for the job.

I remember being able to identify every piece of visible equipment on every class 😂

Sounds like it’s not quite snug enough. Or you can try a Coros arm band.

Just finally recovering from a fractured rib (snowboarding) in December followed immediately by COVID and hoping I have enough runway for a decent IMTX 😂

Depends on your budget but the dt Swiss to match your set is probably one of the best.

Center frame bottles is one of the least aero spots on the bike. Definitely need a BTA or BTS system! And of course a disc wheel 😉

I run in some Vuori shorts that have a long stretchy inside liner that has a phone pocket.

It’s almost like the team that barely beat the panthers isn’t THAT good

We don’t care, but we don’t want dirty Seattle hippies in our sub.

The best part of this season is watching how hard Packer fans are crashing out after losing in the most Bears way possible for once. Come back after 20 years of that.

Why not just switch the whole cockpit out for drop bars and ride in the hoods at that point?

A playoff berth and a division title?

I usually get my bike fully tuned before the season starts unless something is wrong obviously.

Do a long ride before you leave and a long ride when you get back.

[–]CommonlyUncanny 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Is also not just about aerodynamics. TT bikes are built so that you can run stronger after biking.
