Holy moly Jeff, what a great bike.
Anyway, I thought of a great stupid question as I was day-dreaming: are 'bents allowed on L'Etape?
For those not familiar with it, L'Etape is a mountain stage of the TdF that is open to anyone who can pay the entry fee, usually run about a week prior to the pros. It's timed, but most riders are happy just to be alive at the end of it.
