Awsome pics guys. Even Botto's mock-ups.
They make me realize that I'm not the only fool out there in terrible pain.
I haven't had anyone photo me yet. But, I've only raced twice so in due time.

Just after winning a prime, later dropped off the back, only good for one sprint per race in my old age.

He already had a lap on the field in that pic...

I'm sure I'll regret this but...This is a pic from Stage 2 at Ft Davis last year. I flatted on mile 1 and had to wait 3 minutes for a new front wheel. The stage is 16 miles, the first 15.5 miles are ave gradient of 6.5% the last .5 mile is at 17%. I chased the group and caught the tail-enders at the bottom of the first climb, and started to pic guys off. I finished 20th out 50 on this stage. This pic is half way up the 17% section.
