Prep for National Champs

Hello all. Just doing some prep work this week, getting ready for 24-9 this upcoming weekend. Got the 9.9 all ready to go, charging the lights, buying food, gathering all cycling clothing, etc. I was home alone with the kids this weekend while Heather was racing the Half Ironman triathlon in Racine for the 2nd year in a row. Her overall time was within 30 seconds of where she finished last year...that's amazing over the course of a 6 hour race! Both her swim and run were a little slower than last year, but she killed her bike time, averaging a full mph faster! Nice job Heathrow!!

I decided to switch up the look of the X0-1 a bit. Here it is before the changes:
And here it is after. Added new handlebar tape, new Flite saddle, and some new tires to replace those crappy Michelin's that were on there. Black, red, and gold. Beauty. :)
I've been watching a lot of the Tour. What is everyone's predictions? Will Rasmussen hold onto the yellow, or will Evans, Contador, Levi, or Kloden dethrone him in the mountains or TT?

Rasmussen has been consistent and will win I think.
