And I got my Magnesiums before he did! Yeah boy! Honestly though, I LOVE watching this kid race. I think he is still not sure he's racing with the big boys as he literally looks like he stole a 100 bucks from Sven with his attacks off the front, Amazing stay-out-front persistence. I love it.
Dude that race RIPPED. At the BK's too, Prince Albert (who the HELL gave him that name??? We all know what it means...) he flats and claws his way back to the podium dropping Erwin in the process. Unbelievable.
I was an early adopter of the TRPs last year, so mine are no muy sexy. But they are still un poco sexy, and they slow this fatboy down in a hurr-ay. Like my Sharona, once you get the knack, they are easy to adjust to different wheelsets quickly using the screw-ey cable straddle. Gotta hand it to Tektro, it's an *awesome* product to rival or beat Pauls, at 1/3 the price with team discount. Pure gold.

Keller,
Check out the Superprestige #5 Veghel 12/9/07 race. The kid chases Nys down. It is some wicked racing by this youngster.

i'm rocking the trp euro'x's this year- they're a world of difference over myy avid shorty 4's. verry pro!
Hope he's clean; every time I've seen an "Unbelievable" performance lately, turns out they're doped to the gills.
