Maybe it's an advantage to be thin or something when racing bicycles. Does anyone know for sure?

admire their skills alright but don't envy their built, that's pathetic to look at. I guess the beach or poolside exposure is a disaster for those guys, unless you know who they really are..
I'm happy to have more muscle and much more fat

I keep going back to look at the picture since a lot of you are slamming them and I quite frankly dont think they look bad.
They are thin but very fit, nothing wrong with that In my eyes.

I don't see what the big deal is. They are endurance athletes. They are supposed to look like that. I also don't see anything "wrong" with their build.
It's not like they are look either anorexic or obese. Both of which DO look just wrong. They just have very low body fat. Also, they can all ride 2000+ miles in a month.
