Whats the point of the bike leg of a triathlon any more…?!?! (other than falling over!)
I used to take part in the early days of triathlon and used to volunteer to help out during some of the early iron man races – particularly ‘draft busting’ – caught drafting – lose time or DQ’d..
From watching the weekends race, the commentators were saying that drafting is now legal, and indeed that some riders use the stage to get dragged along and have a bit of a rest before the run… Whats the point of that ?!
The original idea was for three individual types of racing, not two races and a bit of a rest…
Quite glad Im not involved in it now…
