TQ Biathlon World Champs - Results

In a world first, TQ held the very first TQ Biathlon World Champs in Perisher last Saturday.

Despite ample notice, there was a very poor turnout for the event. Was it the extreme nature of the sport or the poor attitude of my fellow QUONners? We may never know.

Extreme wind conditions and the after effects of the opening ceremony/celebrations the night before at the Banjo Patterson pub, unfortunately resulted in the shooting component being cancelled.

Extremely bad skiing almost resulted in the xc component also being cancelled, but the weather and the skills held out just enough for the 10km ski loop to be completed by the small but high quality field.

Results
1st Randwick, 20pts
2nd Reidy, 17 pts
3rd QM, 15pts

Please see attached high quality motion pictures, and snapchat pic of the 1st and 2nd place getters, to prove this event was fully legit.

Issues Facing the QUON

Uber spent the weekend hanging out with his exceed TriHards not the QUONERS.

Uber hasn't organised, well much

24 days until one of the rookies is politely asked to leave for failing to meet guidelines

Can the rookies outshine previous Napolean dancing exploits. 

Please Stand By for the Announcement

Team QUON is not exactly sure what the technical difficulties are that has so far prevented the QM from announcing the results of the highly successful Tidwell Awards.  However, it can only be assumed that the problems must be quite severe to have prevented the 2013/14 Tidwell winner from getting his well deserved public accolades and respect.

Please stand by while this issue is presumably urgently being addressed.

Totally Legit Performance Enhancement

When it comes to Ironman Triathlon, months and months of hard-slog dedicated training mean that you have pretty much worn out all your kit.  That's what the Ironman expo is for.  Every single retailer there is there solely to sell you something that will make you faster than you otherwise would.  By logical extension, the more you buy, the faster you will go.  Doesn't really matter what it is.

So, it only makes sense to treat yourself to only the best for your big day.  Buy up big at the expo, replacing everything you want to use on race day so that you have only the best shiny new kit possible.  Goggles, shoes, sunnies, bidon cages, bento boxes, anything at all, but most of all, anything to do with nutrition.  Gels, goos, tablets, powerbars, a last minute change of diet to the best on offer is just like putting high octane premium petrol in your car.  With everything previously unused and fresh out of the wrapper, this virtually guarantees to eliminate chance or fate ruining your race day from using old or worn kit.

You've done the hard yards, treat yourself to only the best to set your PB legacy.

That's What Mates Are For

Thanks for the heads up Flanners.

Bring It ON

Someone's ego is writing cheques their body can't cash.  However, so long as their wallets can cash out over the Royal Hotel bar, there will be no problem.  Br Wallet vs Br Piece Of vs Br Cuddles.  Who can cut the fastest lap times at the Mont this weekend?  Losers to present the winner with 6 packs to suit their taste.

Backing the Right Horse

Transcript of interview with the Leader of the Opposition Bill Shorten on 7:30 Report last week:

LS: Mr Shorten, there has recently been some QUONtroversy as to whether Br Wallet has previously raced Stockingbingal or not.  Can you please tell us your view if you think Br Skin n Bones is correct in his assertion that he never has, or not.

BS: I understand Br Wallet has addressed this in a discussion at EQ in the last week or so, I haven't heard what it is that he said, but let me say that I support whatever it is that he said.

LS: Hang on, you haven't heard what it is that Br Wallet said . . .

BS: But I support what it is that he said.

LS: Well, what's your view?  Has Br Wallet previously raced Stockingbingal or not?

BS: My view is whatever it is that Br Wallet's view is.

LS: Surely you must have your own view on this.

BS: No, when you ask what's my view on this, it's a general question that asks me to go to lots of places.

LS: Specifically, the question is whether you think Br Wallet is correct that he has previously raced Stockingbinal, or whether Br Skin n Bones is correct that he never has.

BS: These matters are yet to be determined, but I support whatever it is that Br Wallet has said.

LS: But you don't know what that is.

BS: Whatever it is, I am sure he is right!

We Believe In Bikes

The question of the week is whether VolKano's big win this week has been enough to lift the Trek Curse(TM).  We know everyone will have not stopped hearing about it yet.  Punters await with bated breath to see who turns up to the Shambles tomorrow morning.  Rumour has it that a certain Pudding may tear himself away from twitter for the morning and make an appearance.
