I know the guys personally. I seriously, seriously doubt any bad behavior.

Most of those numbers are from "that" team.

Thanks, When we started the final hill I was 6th and passed everyone going up the cobbles, then stayed OTS until the finish. I kept thinking there was a train of riders behind me ready to pass, but the image shows otherwise.

does this count as suffering? It's a promo for the tricycle TT a local century is going to hold. Gotta rock the TT gear when you can...

In my previous life, sprinting for the win, I'm in the purple/green jersey.






In this one I was suffering in a time trial that I ended up losing (came in second) by seven seconds.

Off the front with a group for 3 miles, I'm dying here, trying to build a bigger gap (the field is just out of frame to the left). This was a first-pedal-stroke attack, and I wished I'd had time to warm up:

A few, but they're all sub-par and blurry like these. Prince borrowed my camera to shoot while he marshaled.

3rd wheel (with the drop bars -- yes I forgot to remove my frame pump. again.):
