Ok… I’m an admitted TdF nerd, and if everything goes to plan will be arriving there July 8 to watch stages 10, 11 & 12… (and maybe also catch the F1 race in Hockenheim late July) so I thought I’d start a “Tour de France thread”…
For my first post, check out Discos cool new helmets:


Looks like Bell/Giro merged the Meteor II with the new Advantage that Discovery used in the spring. (Sindballe was also riding an advantage at Ralphs & Wildflower.) Rumor has it that the advantage will see its way into retail stores spring '06. Perhaps this helmet will as well. Certainly would be nice to have some of these helmets available, as IMO, the current aero helmets look like crap. Plus I love the fit of Giros…
Good source for your signature too, IronDad…
I’ll have to see it on… it looks pretty cool, though…
