FlyingLaZBoy Moderator '16 ICE SprintX fs, '16 Rocket, '12 KHS Mocha Posts: 5803	Re: TTTT Race update Reply #45 - Oct 5^th, 2007, 9:19pm I'd hate to borrow something I couldn't pay for if I wrecked it! However, there's at least the POSSIBILITY of a real discount on an XStream frameset in the future! Greg sez I'm the "first member of Team RANS"...

The guy's name is Patrick Evoe. He's a pro tri guy. He did the 100 mile ride in 4:13. That's awfully fast for that course.

Since I don't speak German I babel fished some german for clarity. Also, for fun, I translated "Greg kicked some serious butt at the TTTT".....Greg trat irgendeinen ernsten Kolben am TTTT. Ok that souds good. Then I translated it back and got this....Greg stepped any serious piston at the TTTT! Grin

I always knew Greg could step some serious piston! Grin

Close enough to German to get most of the words, but far enough away to get some really funny automatic translations. Opus
