I really like how they came out with their own bike. It looks like Sean Tucker knows what he's doing.

By the way, check out the legs on Dominguez. Holy crap!

Yep, those are Ivan's legs alright. Same ol' ripped Ivan.

I remember standing around talking to Ivan after he kicked my arse in a race down here in Florida. He had just joined Saturn and had veins on top of veins popping out of every inch of his legs. It was almost humorous how ripped he was. And don't think his diet is perfect. Friends of mine from his amateur days talk of 3am mayonaise feedings. Nasty, but I guess it was a holdover from the dirt-poor Cubano days.

I've got a team mate who's built just like this guy. It's like looking at solid piece of granite. I hate standing next to him with my skinny girly man legs!

Did they change the rules about jerseys with stars and stripes on them?
Used to be reserved for reigning or former national champions could wear stars and bars on their jersey.
That's probably been deleted, huh?

Bike's kind of ugly...and $6k for a scandium/carbon mix? You can get a full Record Dogma with Zipp 303's for that kind of money.

Yeah, that really tees me off. I know of many teams that really wanted to do stars and stripes over the years, but couldn't due to the USCF rules. Why'd they let Frankie get away with it? Who do United think they are? Friggin' America's team or something! Aaaarrgghh....

Wow...So that's where Antonio Cruz landed. Ditto on the bike being not-so-cool looking.
