I'm talking about what constitutes a great athlete. You obviously still haven't picked up on what I'm saying.
The point you are missing is that most competitive cyclists are great at more than cycling. Endurance athletes regularly compete in other endurance sports because the training is common. The biggest difference between training as a cyclist and training for the Ironman is the proportional amount of time spent on each facet of the race.

Ok. That's reasonable, I don't know enough about the training and cross competition of each individual racer. They may all be great athletes, I'm just saying that basing it off of one sport doesn't justify the term 'great athlete' to me.
