Following the news that Armstrong is customising his skeleton I thought it might be fun to invite Cliftonites to make further surgical go-faster suggestions to help this troubled man.
My own obvious one is holes in the head to save weight for the climbs.

Can we cut the collar bone jokes please. Some people might find them offensive.
