so does the “athletes special edition” burrito have more calories or less calories than Chipotles standard 1300 calorie bomb????
NO DAVE Z NO CREDIBILITY
Since Dave Z is iffy to make the TdF team, and is in need of recovery from his Giro injuries, I would bet he will not be attending.
Since Cozza will be there, I would also think this is a team policy of only one moustache per Slipstream promotional outing.
Matt Purdue rock!
is just a possible Olympian, and may have to ride off versus the currently flying Brad Huff
Do they know this is NYC? I dont too many people in this town gettin away from the desk at 10am. Must be for the non-workin folk. Seriously – this is a happy hour town 5-7pm after business is dealt with.
They know it’s NYC and that after 11 it will get very full with customers who don’t care about cycling, who only want to buy their lunch and eat. So if you can make it at 10, great. If you can’t, than life goes on. Chill. If you really want to meet them than I’m sure another chance will happen someday.
65/25/10…carbs/fats/protein…
guys were happy to be there and not at all freaked out by freaky cycling fans! I can imagine a “messenger feedzone” coming so to Times Square…Chipotle mussettes with a le burrito and a 40…or Chipotle at Le Tour, in the Ville Depart, Huevos Rancheros de Chipotle…
Gotta go work on my Yosemite Sam facial hair…
