The helmet is aero. And as they said about the Stig, Mr. H does not have pores.

Why did "pro-crusher" mr h take a water bottle up a climb that only lasts 2 min.

Kind of negates the all the gloating about a 790 gram frame!

The helmet and glasses remind me of the early 80's arcade game Dig-Dug.

Mr. H will need to leave the water bottle at home if he wants to swoop on my segment:

The same reason short time trial runs have water bottles, more aero. :p

I have the strava KOM's for the climb up to my house and down (1/2 mile 7% avg, good thing no good one has found it yet).

I subscribe to Peloton. I know that's a review of that ugly BMC.

Marketing? What marketing? All I see is an honest answer to a real problem we all face. And why do I want to go buy a motorcycle helmet?

This seems much easier than my original plan. I was about to take a page out of Laird Hamilton's book and start tow-in strava segments.

If "bought in" means don't use their product, don't care to use their product, and think they didn't do great production check, then yes, I "bought in!"

. . . of marketing BS. Sponsored by BMC, ZIPP, SRAM, Panasonic, Sidi, Assos, Peloton magazine . . . and Strava themselves.

I want my 5:37 back.

Y'know what the winner of this climb on every group ride has to look forward to? Take your guess...none??
