ToC eve and Day 1 catch up

Huff. He's looking skinny and happy. Skinny and happy wins races.

Levi on his new TT bike. He passed me like in a car on the bike path.

Crowds. They are huge. If you thought you did or went to a "pro" bike race before, nah, this is PRO

The crowd outside Astana. Have you ever seen a movie scene where someone takes a rifle shot at a public official and a bunch of secret service agents rush the person out of the scene quickly with a lot of yelling and chaos? That was how the CHP officers would escort Lance and Levi from the team areas to the start area.

You can't even walk near astana

Just like at Team Fly V Australia.

Riding in the team car with Henk V. was intense. The treo phone/camera doesn't capture the intensity of being on Ben Day's ass at 32mph while honking the horn, screaming at him, and skidding around turns with the rpm's hitting redline on every shift. It was rad.

All whilst hanging out the window.

Ryan at Sock Guy made a special pair of ToC socks. It'll be a shame to wear shoes with them.

Going back to Cali

I'll try and carry a real camera later this week.
