Just bananas, man.
Lionel isn't just some triathlete. He's probably the most physically gifted triathlete out there. He's a World Champ and would probably be dominant if he didn't have the tactical acumen of a Cat 4 (and a few injuries). So go ahead and make fun of them!
For real though that sport is a full time job. What a cyclist gets to do is 10x funner than triathletes.
