THIS THREADS ABOUT TEAM WORK ! THERES NO * U or I * IN *TEAMWORK* mister *BULLETPROOF* so LETS NOT turn this in another ONE OF YOUR I WANNA RANT OFF MOMENTS ! i think the VIDEO OF PAT and CO PROVES the FASTEST way for A TEAM TO GET UP THE HILL is NOT TO HAVE SOMEONE RIPPING UP THE TRACK DOING A *TRY HARD* for 10 mins WHEN they ALL GOT UP IN A LOT LESS TIME ! THAN THAT
