Slipstream is sponsored by garmin and saris, it figures they would have both. Whether or not they work together in the future is a different question, the answer to which may result in me going into debt.

Nice of the spectators to return that $8k bike. I wonder how far he flung that bike?

dunno how far, but he threw it hard enough to dislocate the left shifter.

Slow-motion. Nice!

I saw it live, but that was a pretty good toss. Almost up there with Bjarne's toss in, what, '96 or '97?

I am surprised he was able to heave the bike so far after nutting himself on the top tube like that. Ouch.

Maybe Slipstream can't afford a real TT bike for Millar because they spend all their money getting him a PT and a 705, and then he ends up with a BD bike for TTs.

I know, those are sweet, but I was referring to this (I know this isn't Millar):
