dodge - i immediately thought that too when i saw the picture - there's a bit of a resemblance. i thought "ah, there's jan ulrich", no wonder he got dropped on the mountains if he was simultaneously doing an ironman!
Hi all, Godzilla's mate Mike (and pirate supporter from the IronMan Zurich) here. I'm going to attempt to post a link to a gallery of pics I took on sunday, mainly from Heartbreak Hill(yes, i was one of those 3 nutter pirate supporters who remained at the top until everyone has done their 3rd lap!). Hope this works....:-)
MilesToGo the pictures were mainly taken at the top of Heartbreak Hill, hence off the aero-bars.
I've finally read through the whole of this thread and I'd just like to say a huge thank you to all supporters! You've been fantastic. I've never had a weekend like that in my life.
I don't think any of us have, Garr. ) And I just loved that hostel. How laid back can you get? Fling bikes and bags everywhere? no problem. Fall asleep on the table (ahem)? no problem. Provide breakfast at 4am? no problem...
Just read through the whole thread, thanks a lot to everyone,(except anyone that said I look like Jan Ulrich!!) its fantastic knowing youve got such great support back home.

TC - looks like I'll have to cycle to FW before Lochaber next year too...I might do it on the friday though!
Well a spot of lunch maybe a bit of work and better start that race report....
I AM AN IRONMAN - WAS NEARLY A SINGLE MAN TOO!

brilliant stuff.
Was it when y'all tried to burn the hostel down, they objected slightly?
You gave us all a fright.
I mean - I'd just lost two bouts of arm-wrestling; I wasn't going to be able to pick you up, was I?
Whos coming next year then....?
