It took 4 years after the addition of mountain bikes for a cyclist to beat the horse at the Llanwyrtd Wells event. Also, AFAIK, the Romans did not have bicycles. ps. I raced this event twice in the early 1980s when they had a mountain bike division, and still have scars on my right arm from one of them.
