Team Garmin are meeting the press this afternoon at their hotel. We’re dropping in to upload some short videos. Check back often as they’re uploaded.
Tyler Farrar
The hotel lobby was too dark and loud, and we were getting answers that were too long to video as snippets, so I didn’t do any more videos. Full interviews will be transcribed and posted soon. Here’s some iphone photos from the party, Marco’s real photos will be up later today.
Gui with his obligatory beer.
Snappy ascot.

“The way the deal went through is very disrespectful, and Brad clearly went after the money, which is sad,†David Millar, a British rider, said.
Tim Duggan might have been smaller than Alejandro.
I went to the web site to check them out. I just want to know do they really pay you $195 to wear them?
I really liked this new venue for roller races. Pretty much everyone can see the races and you can easily move around.
Agreed, matt diefenbach = monster sprinter. If you look at him you would never guess he was so smooth and so fast.
Kudos to Prensky who started a bit shaky but kept getting smoother and faster as the night went on.
Good times!! Thanks Andy, Dan and Alex – you guys keep stepping it up, getting better and better each year.
Garmin guys were class acts. Hobbs threshold clearly above average. Wiggins who? JV was detoxing with Pomtinis and v/cute blond.
Sorry I missed what looks like a really good show. I’ll work on getting a full time live in nanny next time…
time of day, attraction to participants…whatever…these roller races are an excuse to cheers a few exceptional riders, and get pissed…
but a different experience if the event was to DRAW juniors not only raise $20 per head…what did Grandma Garmin donate I wonder?
Rough estimate, 200 x $20 = Ken and Mike should have lotsa $20 jAcksons to count…
I propose we go drinking agin, but just watch 6 days dvds with strippers on the bars and Champagne rooms…there was maybe 3 chicks in the place…invite Tiger Woods and any NBA players to attract the really good strippers…
HAHAHAHAAAAAA
When is the next race?
I will choke the Chicken in my Gorilla suit!!!!
😉
I hope ya got some spills!
For the record, Garmin was very generous.
millar has about as much moral high ground to stand on in judging wiggo as a converted coke whore turned bible banging born again christian has preaching the “right” way to live.
JVs get up with the Panta Claus is fantastic. Kudos. We’ve still got a few pairs left….come check us out at bonobos.com.
P.S. – For a few plaid varietals – check out the Bonoblog http://www.bonobos.com/blog
Cheers and Happy Holidays!
