What is Garmin-Chipotle using for power, they are sponsored by Saris (mfg. of powertap) but if you look at their setup all they have is a Garmin 705. If you look closely I think I can see that they are using a powertap wheel, is this feeding into their 705?

ANT+ compatible PowerTap.

Which will be available to the public sometime in 2009.

Allegedly in September, according to a conversation with Saris in June or July. Seeing as how it's mid-September already...

Judging by their DS, I'd say Elf kibble.
