TdF bicycle p0rn

...So I'm the type that turns my head when I see someone on a bicycle roll by. I mean, anyone. Even when I'm driving around in my car (the car is great, it's the driving part that I'm ashamed of), my head turns to check out the ride of someone cruising by....

I even stopped by the cynergy bicycle store out in santa monica on a date to drool on the windows... I've never seen a bicycle shop display their bikes like lingerie in Victoria's Secret....seriously, hotness. My date didn't mind either, apparently, she thought it was cute and actually understood the 'why' of it all (not a bicyclist, but she appreciates aesthetics)...

That being said, I'm sure I'm not alone.... Does anyone have any links/images of the bicycles that are being jocked this year?

Those closeups they showed of cranks/drivelines in the starthouse of the prologe were way cool. I would rewind and pause playback to check them out. Wish I had a way to video capture it

Floyd's setup in particular was pretty wild.

so there aren't any websites or galleries which feature this?? What? Have the automakers really taken over? WTF, man?! I might as well fly over to L'Alpe d'Huez, wait for the podium, and while they're all distracted through a couple bikes in the back of my rental Renault truck. Head for the nearest border.

Then maybe bring them back to the states, set up a members-only bicycle p0rn site and make some money. ;-)

Maybe it's all those sticky threads above this one that keep the discussion threads in the TdF forums down the list??

CyclingNews constantly features bikes of the Tour in their Tech section.
