He joined Rock Racing…
you beat me to it.
Ben, nice pics.
Thanks
If you look carefully you can see the new TTX that trek made for lance behind the black one. I actually like it a lot better with the white and yellow graphics. Great pics everyone!
Looking at the overall standings, the ‘booth bunnies’ might as well be riding for leaky-gas.
They hold 5 of the bottom 15 overall spots. Did they bring their “C” team?
The new one was black also. Actually, I think the black one is the new one, if it says “Ride this one like you stole it”
I didn’t know they were both black. Whose bike do you think is the white one then?
Probably a spare?

Liquigas is here to train and get some racing in their legs, their target is the Giro, where I believe Basso will win.
Does the white one have Zipp Vumachrono cranks with SRAM stickers?
Brajkovic has the Zipp cranks it looks like…
Well Sram owns Zipp so I guess it’s not that big of a deal.
a few more pics
me and Robert Gesink, then Frank Schleck, Landis, Hincapie and Gesink

I was going to post my pic of Lance’s TT bike but someone might recognize my living room in the picture and call the cops!

Some great photos. And I was going to say before someone pointed out the painted in Zabriskie on the no name felt, but it’s an easy tell, since instead of the argyle graphic, it has the red white and blue with the stars, symbollic of US TT Champ DZ.
Also I noted the Kestrel graphics on Rock Racing’s Fujis, since Kestrel’s TT rigs are not UCI legal, they’re riding the Fujis rebadged.
As for Leaky Gas, they had Basso who dropped out and the rest were just there to train and to give him some support. It was more or less Basso and the C team.
I was impressed with the US continental teams performances. Despite Landis not doing much, Ouch was in virtually every break. Rock Racing had solid results from Mancebo and others. It’s nice to see the home grown teams holding their own with the protour guys.
Oh man…
Great pics for sure. The White Trek is Lance’s. He passed me on 360 (in Austin), the Saturday before the ToC. I was struggling up a climb and he blew by on that bike while on his aerobars.
