Astana Seeing Blue and Red
obra4 | December 13, 2007Looks like Trek has found a home for their new bikes. With the disbanded Discovery team off their list they needed to get a team using their bikes. So it looks like Johan Bruyneel has cloned the now defunct Discovery Channel team, and has setup the team using the same bikes as well.
Trek’s presence in the pro peloton was put into doubt when Tailwind Sports, the parent company for the Discovery Channel Pro Cycling Team—the team Trek has sponsored for the last ten years—announced that it would disband the team after the 2007 season. Looks like that’s no longer the case and to add to the “Bling” factor they get a nice touch of SRAM Red.

One Year Notched Off the Belt
obra4 | December 10, 2007
Well its one more year down and a move to the “Master 35+” race group for me. Just to clarify, my race age is 35, I’m 34! And in the spirit of getting older, what am I going to do tonight. Yep! Work me bum off. I can hear the coach now (fade to black…)
Coach: Get your lard movin. Drop that 100,000 calorie king carb Cinnabon and give me 250rpms now!!!
Is that all you got in you… you splayed out man boob mutha! Come on…get that big Krispy Kreme monster truck spare tire moving.
Get moving on that bike of yours…you mamby pamby. Get up that hill and stop huffing and puffing like some sort of blowfish.
You call yourself a man, muffin tops…what kinda cyclist are you anyway! Your a cyclist with chicken legs…your momma must have had it out for you.
Me: (Having panting… beads of sweat pouring down my face) What?!
