I saw the Rock Racing bus on Hwy 37 near Vallejo on my way back from China Camp tonight. Is there a race I'm not aware of, or are they really lost.

The RR CTS was in Palo Alto not to long ago (2 weeks maybe). Maybe they're going to relocate?? Or are scouting "winter" camp locations?

Maybe they were picking up/dropping off Adam Switters (former Teammate and current member of Rock Racing) from/in Davis. Probably not but...

They were in Sacramento just a few days ago. Saw them at the 49er truck stop off 80/El Camino.

I need to find out where the bus is and follow it. Maybe one of those $400.00 kits will fall off the back:eek:

Or maybe a couple pair of R&R jeans will fall off and you can sell them to buy those $400 kits!! hehe!

Or maybe the driver got lost...

This is so not what I expected when I clicked on a link titled "rock racing bus on Hwy 37"

A rock racing a bus down a hill from a vista point, duh! :)

.. The subject has proper capitalization at least, but since I've never heard of rock racing, it wasn't enough to clue me in :)

They made a lot of noise at the 2008 Tour of California. They would show up in a John Madden sized tour bus.. with the team owners rolls royce right behind and an army of escalades for sag. Then the "girls" would get off the bus and follow the owner (Michael Ball) around like Ali Baba's mansion. Traditionalist didn't dig it, but I sure did, they were a lot of fun, and all were very approachable, even Michael Ball.

Bottom line, they're something different, beit better or worse, something different.

David Clinger of Rock Racing is of a different stripe, for sure!

Actually from what I've seen.. Clinger now rides for Webcor:eek: He is no longer listed on the RR riders list.
