I'm sure some dude with uber-quads and adamantium knees probably would though.

Grudas wore his tank top proudly and didn't find the hills too bad. We think he was just imagining himself doing one-legged squats the whole way up! We also saw the gun show when he pumped up his tube after getting a puncture. MAX PSI with a mini-pump.

The body is bent slightly but it's otherwise fine. His asthma inhaler and Fizik saddle bag on the other hand were destroyed.
