There's a point at which a guy starts getting good at
TTing and that's the time he should start thinking about aero equipment.
Before that it's just a waste of money.

There you go trying to dictate how people should spend their money
again...

As someone pointed out - the fastest TT ever was Greg LeMond using aero
bars. Maybe you'd like to explain to us the reason that total wind tunnel
tuning, total aero equipment and total dedication hasn't been able to break
that record again? After all, that was 17 years ago. Are you telling us that
aero hasn't improved immeasurably since then?

If memory serves, Fignon wasn't even second in the final TT and someone else
without aero stuff finished close enough to Greg to still be one of the
fastest TT's ever even without aero bars.

I'm trying to dictate how people will spend their money? Who is selling a
book on speed? Who is making money off of software purported to make
cyclists faster? Am I making a living writing about speed?

Now let's get this straight Andrew, I'm not accusing you of being mercenary.
I'm accusing you of being nothing more than biased.

Tom -

A few days ago I thanked Sierraman for definitively demonstrating that
he, and not you, is the ultimate r.b.r. kook. And now here you are,
making a late charge after I, we, thought this was settled.

Tom, please - we need closure on this. Even if you really are that
kooky, can you reign it in, at least for a few weeks? Then, when we
have forgotten about Sierraman, you can unleash your full kookitude
again.

Thanks.
