I’ve been tempted to do that, although I am hampered by a severe failure in the drinking department. But it always sounds like fun. Si ---

I can’t supply brain bleach, and I feel really sorry for the poor sod who had to zoom in on the originals to read my number from my helmet, but… [pics](http://www.sportcam.net/CompetitorImage.aspx?ID=54&General=No) Don’t go there. Just don’t. Si ---

A friend of mine was racing in a bike race (a criterium, which is many laps around a short course, about 1 mile per lap). He always wore zinc oxide on his nose, and during this race the town drunk was on a corner yelling “Go Whitenose!” Every. Single. Lap. My friend finally pointed to the guy on one lap and yelled “That’s Chief Whitenose to you, buddy!” So you should have been Chief Naked Guy. Maybe next time. ---

There’s gotta be a market for clear see-through vests, right? ---

> [@Munch](#): > > There’s gotta be a market for clear see-through vests, right? Most proper tri-suits can expose plenty of chest anyhow (those with a front zip). I have just realised that my earlier link does not go directly to the images of me, so select the _220 Triathlon Evening Series_, _Race 2_, and the bib number _54_. For a better look on the bike _Race 1_, bib number _5_ Si ---

When I was driving home last night, there was a guy out riding his bike. He was shirtless and helmet-less: just shorts and shoes. It was all I could do not to shout out “Go, Naked Guy!” ---
