Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Trek paint job question.

I was @ my LBS last night and there was a bunch of TT bikes sitting together to be shipped to an Ironman out in AZ.

There was one Trek bike with the coolest paint job I've seen on a bike so far. One of the salesmen told me it was a stock paint job one year... but I failed to follow up on that.

Has anyone ever seen a Trek TT bike painted like an old P40 Warhawk?
