The last of the silliness! Schmalz in italics!

If you're a complete geek you can check out the Aero and Power symposium posted on dcrainmaker's blog, where Jim Meyer of Quarq has a nice explanation of virtual elevation (aka the Chung Method).

Sweet brake levers.
Mark Purdy wants to build a bike around those levers. In other news, Toto built a sandwich around ham.
These bars look like they'll give the top tube a good whack.
TT bikes are so expensive now, I'm riding mine until it turns to dust.
Cable to hydraulic conversion for 'cross.

More hand modeling, try to hold onto your breakfast.

This dude rode to Vegas from LA in 18 hours straight.
McQuaid couldn't monetize this, so it's banned.
Even the heel pad is aero.
What has two thumbs and can tolerate standing for days while talking to guys with halitosis?
Champion Systems is now making custom saddle covers. Schmalz hand modeling optional.

I like to call my face the "money maker"

Foci!
Schmalz and Purdy getting annoyed that their hunt for free beer is being delayed by my picture taking.
MTB Di2 by K Edge, the chain catcher people.
And in colors too!
This was moments before Jim Meyer buried that MTB Cinqo in my skull.

Geek Highlander, there can be only one!

303 Firecrests are even wider than 404's and 808's. It's all about width.

I believe you the word you're looking for here is "girth" Andy...

Shorts all the way down to your socks, but you can't wear pants because, you know, that would look silly.
One of these guys is an Olympic athlete. Can you tell which?
Stick this in the oven and it'll be a carbon bike.
This Seven is made of pencils.
It's DCRainmaker!

Just after taking this picture Andy and DCRainmaker battled to the death. Power geek Highlanders. There can be only one!

Tell it to Barry Bonds.
Stainless steel lugged Ritte.
Rittes are pretty and for me, that's 90% of liking bikes.
They couldn't clean this first?
Sweet custom track bike.
Laser cut head badge.
Bedazzled headset spacer! Classier than sparkly paint.
Cool chainstay struts.
Is the notion of me being a hand model really that funny?

What is it with the corny photo captions, is there an inside joke which I am missing, or is it an attempt to be witty/funny?
