Frame looks like the same on the Momentum issue (#33 I think) with him in (he chats about his new store there in Austin):

Cue someone ignoring the two pages of excited cyclists and just talking about how Mash sucks and has done nothing for the community...

I met Lance last year. I was really unimpressed with him...no wait, it was the other way around.

Good link, that one made me smile. I liked the, "Okay, I'm going to go fast now" bit as he crested the hill with everybody. I bet there were a few looks back and forth between the guys:
"You gonna get on his wheel?"
"Nope!"
"You gonna get on his wheel?"
"Nope!"

There were some photos of lance riding around on a tall bike a bit back as well. Seems he fraternizes with more than just the roadie crowd which is rad

yeah, my bad...I don't know the guys that well...could have been a video taken in www.garrettindiana.us for all I know. Either way, his cadence is up there!
I'm jealous sitting here in my office...I'd like to call home and say, "honey, I won't be home tonight, I'm taking my bike, getting on a plane/bus/etc and going to shoot videos of me and the boys rippin' it up!...and I won't be home for a while, so make sure the boys get fed and attend soccer practice."

Lance was pretty rad and took us mountain biking on his ranch when we were all hung over.

Hi, just wondering,
What's so cool about the Mash crew? (I get the Lance part, fair enough)
but I don't get the "riding fast as hell through traffic and red lights like I don't care" so much fun..
Anyone willing to share the coolness?

They do have nice bikes though, that Ciocc Enemy in particular, but yeah, I don't see the appeal either.
I did like it when Lance was talking to the cops; I imagine it was something along the lines of "Yeah, sorry officer, just a little bit of horse play, we will turn it down a notch" whereas, if he hadn't been there, the cops would have ticketed everyone. Star-power.

I'll bet he just pulled that bike off the rack from the shop. Mustache bars? Too weird for him.
And is he just wearing sneakers with no retention? I can't quite tell.

By the way, I assume that by your answer you're "totally in the loop" and so young you're cool
