Well, I'd have that peloton of men in blue leisure suits and aviator sunglasses who would be leading out everywhere I went ...
The Prime Minister of Tuvalu (sp?) visited my brother once. It's only a nation of 10,000, so would be more like mayor of a small town here, not a big deal. However, the US Secret Service has a minimum level of protection for a foreign head of state. That meant 4 agents to accompany him at all times. So everywhere they went, they had 4 Secret Service dudes with them, checking the table out before they sat down at a restaurant, stuff like that. My brother said it was great fun.
So ya, you could show up to a bike race and make those guys course marshall.

I'd never have to train again. Victory would be a matter of homeland security... PRAISE (Reference to the other thread about religion)!

--- Tyler had no stage wins because Bruyneel rarely allows his riders to attempt individual stage wins, it sucks and Cedric Vasser left because of it. C Agricole and CSC allow riders more freedom.
That's what they have to do because they don't have a realistic shot at the overall.
You'll never see Jacky Durand type riders on a team with a major contender for the Tour.

The Posties are a lot stronger than they appear on paper, it is just that the postie domestiques are too restrained and discouraged from placing high after their jobs are done for the days stage.----- My proof Look at Tylers position now, Levi would also be in the top ten without his accident but if these guys were riding for postal they would be forced to be 20 minutes down at least.
That's because they don't have a realistic shot at the overall. Jalabert spent his last two tours chasing mtn. points and going on long breaks (which the French just eat up), but it's a sign that you've decided you don't stand a chance on GC so you go for all the consolation prizes.

It was really hard for Vasseur to try for a stage win the year he wasn't even selected for the team. With all the whining he did then, he wasn't really missed when he left. Maybe he's happier now -- he's got the opportunity to go for the stage win, though he's riding for the cursed team.

Not really, just make the Secret Service's job a little harder. You can run a country from a bike saddle. It just take a little ingenuity.

7 minute miles is jogging. 6 minute miles or better is running.
[censored]. 9 minute miles is jogging. Most runners would love to do a 5K at 7 minute miles, would be ecstatic with a 10K with 7 minute miles.

Way back when I was sprinting (on foot), the coach had us run 6 minute miles for training. I'm pretty sure I can do a 7-minute mile, and I am NOT a runner.
It doesn't matter. He's not creative.

I am associated with 3 running groups, an officer with one of them. People who can run a 3K with an ave of 7 minute miles are runners. If you can run a 10K with a 7 min ave you can be sub-seeded for many races that have big purses and professional attendance. Pretending that people who run 7 minute miles are 'joggers' is utter [censored]. Saying as much only proves ones ignorance, or bias. ;-)

Dude, 7 min/mile is slow. 42 minute 10k. That's not a seeded time.

Dude, I said sub-seeded. Do you know the difference?? 7 minute miles is not slow. Only a fool would call it 'jogging'.

Where are these races? Does runing a 7 min average in a "big race" make you feel better when the lead is at sub 5 mins/mile and the average is better than 6???
Rule of thumb here (as explained by club coach) is: 34 min 10K - club runner 30 min 10K - provincial rep better than 30 min 10K - national rep
