errrr, some roadies would object to the helmet straps being over the arms of the glasses in the top photo?

and neither subject would seem to have shaved their legs. 😕

number duplication in same sportive?

Hairy legs ?

Ashamed to have looked that closely 🙁

both riders look as miserable as ****……………..
proving the long held belief of mountainbikers……………..
that roadcycling is SHYTE………….. 😀

Is it any of the following?

1. Number have been photoshopped on

2. One rider decided to change kit and bike between photo ops

3. One rider decided to photocopy his number so his friend could ride for free

I think the top guy has a timing tag, but the bottom guy doesnt?

Both are about to ride into a pane of glass with some website printed on it?

Same rider, riding in a series event, for two different teams?

The top one’s front QR is on the wrong side?

The bottom one has the crazed look of a madman?

number duplication in same sportive?

Nope, they are different events.

Number attached to bars not the traditional frame/behind seatpost/back pocket?

Cable ties not trimmed?

Expensive carbon frames ridden by mid-pack Sportive riders?

Is advertising on jerseys allowed for sportives?

Top rider in inner ring, bottom rider not got his rear qr tucked into the rear triangle properly, cable ties should be to the rear of the number or trimmed, and I don’t even want to start on their clothing.

Riding a road bike? 😉

What’s the thing around the BB area on the top pic?

the frame, huge bb area on cervelo r3

Its simple, its road racing, so its ALL WRONG.

White shoes?

the bottom chap looks like he’s made a stinky.

Come on then Frisky? What is wrong?

lol ton , have to aggree 8)

sportives are good fun, and not to expensive a day out, but for what essentialy a massive group ride, its overpriced.

Will flashmob bike rides will be the future (once GPS becomes dirt cheep)?

Mountainbike pedals and shoes?

Still no answer?

So its not just me whos getting annoyed. WE NEED THE ANSWER.

wrong forum?

The bottom one should be number 569 but the tool at the sign in desk gave him the wrong number. The top chap underwent the same mistake, as clearly he’s a number 36 type of chap.
Obviously.

They’re both riding in the wrong direction.

They both only have 3 toes on the left foot….

He’s right, assuming the road wasn’t closed.
