Check out the Irish team's new tiny go-faster skinsuits. Ouch!

Colin Lynch shows of his absolutely tiny go-faster Irish national team skinsuit ahead of the Paracycling World Championships.

A while back we brought you a story about how small Ryan Mullen's new Cannondale national TT champion's skinsuit is and a short clip of him struggling to get into it.

And now the Irish national team is following the trend of making skinsuits as small as possible in order to be as aerodynamic as possible.

The shot above is of world class paracycling rider Colin Lynch showing off his new speed suit ahead of the Paracycling World Track Championships which get underway today, Thursday, in Italy.

And Lynch has also gotten himself a very cool paint job on his track bike, below.

Is this a bike for St Patrick's Day or is this a bike for St Patrick's Day?
