Going French with my Tri preferences

As my triathlon count climbs, I notice more and more Saucony kit appearing in my cave. (The ‘cave’ is my garage, which has no car in it.)

I’ve always used their trisuits – the seams and taped bits just seem to be in the right place to hold my 75kg meat puppet together – and recently I’ve added one of their tri bags, a clever little backpack that unzips all the way round and rolls out into a ready-made transition area with all my kit in the right place. (Using this, I would never, for example, have to return to T1 while wheeling my bike out because I’ve forgotten my race number, oh dear me no.) And among my other kit too, I notice a big drop in Ironman shorts and tops in favour of the French. Hmmm.
