Ford = Phinney in 4 years

The other unofficial record went to American Taylor Phinney, who
eclipsed the 3'17.775" three kilometre record, which was set by
Australian Michael Ford in 2004, during his individual pursuit
qualifier. The three kilometre distance is the mark for junior riders,
and the 17 year-old Phinney is petitioning to have the time recognised
by the UCI, even though it was set during the senior distance of four
kilometres.

So basically you people are telling me Taylor Phinney, in 4 years, will
be as good as "Michael Ford" is right now. Wow, that sounds promising.

Thanks,

Magilla

Prior to Ford, the record was held by Brad McGee.

Oops, forgot that he's also worn the golden fleece.

Dude, I'm not going to respond to the premise of your post,
since that would be silly. But I do take note of your use
of the Kunich debating style to make your point. You know,
the leap of logic that allows TK to create an opinion out
of nothing and assign it to an opponent.

I have a lot of respect for your author. I'm humbled that
he or she found use in the Kunich code.

The premise of my post is valid because all the Colorado-lover chimps in
here go bananas anytime some American does something on a velodrome. So
I used the same velodrome statistic of another rider to show an
alternative potential outcome.

I noticed how Phinney's 8th place in worlds silenced all his
cheerleaders in here.
