The cape may have slowed him down....

Super man uses a specially impregnated lycra cape to resist wind and bullets, Leitch; well he just uses a double woven 100% wool blanket and relies on beer as a sports drink.


If may have slowed him down on the bike as his cape caught the wind but it didn't prevent him from coming first in his age group (25-29) and getting an eleventh place overall. Being interviewed by our sister blog 220 and commenting on his great achievement he commented "I was crap though".  As I said, I think he can put that down to the blanket.
