Cream of the Crop

Speaking of Interbike, Jason over on chifg just sent me this picture of a page from the Interbike info booklet:


How the hell did we make top 3? Those poor, misinformed bastards.

King of Vegas

Happening at Interbike next week.

Hipster Nascar goes to Interbike

Yes, that's right, while the rest of the bike blog world is partying in Japan, we decided to go in a different direction. Aaron will be in Vegas this week, reporting from Interbike on all the newest trends in recumbent, hybrid, and beach cruiser bikes. Can't wait! Seriously though, I think we're going to be one of the few street/track bike blogs attending, so keep checking back for regular posts from the show, and follow Aaron's Interbike adventures on twitter.

Interbike Revelations

Revelation 1: Lance raced Cross Vegas. He came 22nd in the men's Elite race. Lining up against him was Chicago phenom, Rock Lobster rider and former alleycat supremo Ben Popper. Yay Ben!

Lance "unattached" Armstrong clearing a barrier at Cross Vegas last night. Thanks to Ken Conley for the great photo. Check out more of Ken's cycling photos here.

Revelation 2: MASH edition Cinelli. Let's be honest, this is not a revelation to anyone who reads any other track bike blog, but even though everyone has already seen this, I still felt I should post it. More details here.

Revelation 3: Katy Steudel of Team Pegasus won the Wheelers and Dealers Industry Race race at Cross Vegas in front of 3,500 spectators! Hell yes, Katy!

Sounds like Interbike has been pretty good so far. I haven't seen many photos of impressive track stuff though, but I did see some photos of nice track stuff at Eurobike recently, so I'll post that soon.
