Dear Mr MC,
If my mail is correct (cough), your prediction may take some time before it comes to pass.
The gentlemen in question is a practitioner of the dark art of triathlon.
Cycling is not his primary sport . There is usually 3 or 4 hours of road training under the belt by the time
that Saturday arvo rolls around.
Perhaps you could convince him to change sports as I hear that you are a most eloquent orator!
Spandy.
