Yeah it takes technique alright -
1. You can't just start shirtless (on a cold day esp.) or you look full of yourself
2. You can't leave it on cos then you're not hardcore enough
3. You can't pull it off during the easy sections cos it looks rehearsed & planned
4. The refined technique involves pulling to the crux with shirt on, cranking a couple of times but backing off the crux, give a hearty grunt or 2, peel away the shirt that's so obviously holding you back, let it fall away to those below who must surely by now be looking up in admiration, and then suck it in & crank to glory!!!
