This is silly.  I used to race and love cycling, but it will never replace golf as a sport.  After the first or second crash, most people will back off on riding a great deal.  I've broken my collarbone, cracked ribs twice, and got a stick impaled in my shin.  Great fun!

These guys are good though. :-)

Hanging around the Golf Industry Show this week I've been heartened to pick up some positive energy at a convention that has been fairly subdued the last five years.

So it is with some confidence about the fundamentals of golf that I can tell the cycling lovefest to pick another sport to demolish.

Monday we heard from a millionaire entrepreneur on why golf is dying and how  cycling is cool, even if the logic didn't make a bit of sense. But now we get to see what the cyclists would do if they were given access to a course."Peter Sagan’s post-ride golf match" is as horrifying as you'd imagine.

Kill slow play. Allow walking. Reduce ineffective golf instruction. Use environmentally friendly course maintenance.

It is a good thing they have helmets on.  Gotta be safe.

This can't possibly be on a real golf course because they'd be arrested.
