Problem was it sometimes involved their own coaches,
We've got a road coach not far from here. Could easily be described as A-group CV/website and D-group experience, results and qualifications. Some of the advice given certainly makes the eyebrows raise. But he's got on with the sportive crowd, so many of them have even less idea than he does. But the money he's charging. 😯
"Trying to tell half a dozen middle aged blokes who have spent the last three years scoring a million points on strava/sufferfest that they might want to do this that and the other will usually result in a string of swear words as they have a million points and a powermeter."
every club has that eejit..... "close the gap" "but my power says" "close the gap" "but" "close the ****ing gap"
is quite a common call around here 😉
there's two i won't ride with.
One is mr 3 abreast - 'but i want to talk to x' and ' we're already taking up our lane, one more won't make a difference' - Not so much a safety issue, other than it makes the cars behind want to kill all cyclists and gives us all a bad name
The other is mr racing line. he can't corner without going wide - apex - wide. maybe an exaggeration but bloody hard to predict if you end up on his RHS on a country lane.
