Anatomy of a Photo: Take a Look While You Still Can

FDJ guy: Is that the new fizik Kurve in Bull?

Fast Phil: Oui.

FDJ guy: Mind if I have a look?

Fast Phil: Do it while you can because it’ll be blowing past you later.

Marko

Marko lives and rides in the upper midwest of the States, Minnesota specifically. "Cycling territory" and "the midwest" don't usually end up in the same sentence unless the conversation turns to the roots of LeMond, Hampsten, Heiden and Ochowitz. While the pavé and bergs of Flanders are his preferred places to ride, you can usually find him harvesting gravel along forest and farm roads. He owes a lot to Cycling and his greatest contribution to cycling may forever be coining the term Rainbow Turd.

Mark my words: if I could sell one of my kids, there'd be a Xelius in my future...

Naw, I went with the black "O". That way my shoes, shades, and helmet match any kit that I wear.

@Cyclops
but surely you only wear the V-kit, no? Whoops, forgot the state champs jersey.

Point taken...some inspiring music you've got there, what happened to the dude who ate it in the two photo montages?

Nice video y'all got going out there! Observation: a shit ton of centerline violations out there. If that happens in OBRA-land, you could win the race by 20min. You'd still be last. Not so strict out in potato land?
Rocking kits btw. Too much black and white in the amateur peloton now.

@Ron

And what are the feelings on Gilbert's kit & gear this year. Too much coordination or looking good?

Ron, I'm thinkng a little too much red. This might be mo betta'

And this is no skinny armed, missing too many doping controls, FDJ guy.

While it is alot of red going on, he is able to carry it off rather well I think. It's a bit like those male Mandrill's; the more mature (read faster) PhilGil gets, the redder his bibs become. A sure sign of his dominance of the pack.

I don't know, all that stuff was from last year and this is my first year with Simply Mac.

I don't know, when I won the SC race the race marshal had just got done yelling at a guy for yellow line violations so when he pulled up along side me (to tell me that I was the only Cat 5 left in the lead group) I thought I was in trouble. I guess if you don't get caught it's legal right?
