For those of us who can't drop the cash money to fly over the pond to taste, touch and sniff the new goods being showcased at this year's Eurobike there are some Flickr photo's being posted. I followed a Velonews link this morning for spy shots, but was met with no link to the uploads. After which I started to mine for some links and found a good one from Franzjakob Thaler. Yeah, I don't know who it is either, but he took some good shots of the demo day goods. Link to pics is HERE. There are no captions to the pics, but you can pick up on quite a bit of the meat. Such as up close shots of the electronic DA on the first page. And some tech info on the downhill gearbox setup at the of the stream. And finally a shot of a Cannondale commuter.

Your chance to drop some industrial grade Craftsmen clawhammers on the seven time Tour de France winner Lance Armstrong is around the corner. Lance Armstrong has signed up for the Leadville 100 this coming August 9th. Let's hope that this time there are no schedule conflicts and that Mr. Floyd Landis decides to show up as well. In case you're wondering this is not the first time the Triathlete/Road Champion/Marathon Runner/Marathon MTBer has thrown his hand into the dirt pot. Way back in 1999 at Mt. Snow Lance decided to get some skills training in for the year at the NORBA nationals. He came across the line sixth 3 minutes behind Travis Brown that year. It seems he has also been doing some closet training in the form of competing in a local marathon race at the beginning of the year. Your local Home Depot awaits.
