You have got to love Americans. The first lesson in bicycling is that it's called called cycling. The second lesson is learning the metric system.

Excuse my ignorance, but how do we know the fella is a yank?

I'm still not quite clear why GB is allowed more than one representative in the TT at this late stage - can someone point me to the specific rule on this?

Edit: ignore this. I checked and the top 10 countries in the World TT championship get a place even if they already have one from the continental rankings. I think they should just allow all countries to have one competitor. They should also stop this silly system of insisting the TT rider should also be part of the road race squad. The two disciplines are different, and this severely disadvantages countries with fewer riders in the RR.
