    Coolest pro around? I think so. The speedo and man bra look is pretty epic, the bandana just caps it.

    The ol' "race number over the feoil agus glasraí" is a good touch too.

    I dunno. There's something not quite right when your race number is bigger than your shorts :)

    He must have a cast iron boll!x, how the fcuk can he do an IM bike in those budgie smugglers???? I see Philip Graves has started to copy the look as well.

    Was in the same race as him last year, he's a ninja. Great loping running style, everyone shouting his name as they were getting smoked by him!

    Was chatting to him (on a small sandy desert Island in the Persian Gulf) for a while a few years ago. Our team was camped next to his, and we offered them our surplus food :) Seems like a nice chap. Very friendly and modest.

    I was very impressed with his Kona performance last year.

    He even manages to pop a water bottle in to the budgie smugglers :pac:

    I hope Luke 'ming' Flanagan doesn't see the Erdinger logo emblazoned across his chest. I found it ironic hearing him as a legalise cannabis campaigner grilling some of the CEO's of the sports bodies over the drink advertisement in sports issue.

    Good point - I was thinking Faris isn't much of an advertisement for a beer, in the local supermarket my hands havent strayed as far as a blue Erdinger yet so I am not sure if the non comes before or after the Erdinger in the german format (I have heard they are as good as you can get when it comes to Non Alco)

    Yup. They market the non alcohol version as a recovery/sports drink on the continent. First drink over the line in Austria 70.3 was a pint of it.
