This was the 'roudy' bunch. The guy in the foreground had the boom box (ACDC, Metalica, etc) and where the primes were given out ($ and other types )

Two questions:

Is that freeway shot right by Alpine Valley?

and

What team is that with the all-black skinsuits?

Bare Knuckle Brigade
The team is basically run by the lalonde brothers (#'s 1 and 3? mountainbikers in WI/MN/IL) They almost all run SS steel rigs for cross and general mountainbiking

Yeah ... that's Alpine Valley. That's gotta be one of the bigger climbs in this area ... guess it got it's name for a reason. :) Maybe next race weekend we'll get some MUD !
