Trek World in Pics

Some fun goodies from Trek World:

Alberto Contador's bike right from the Tour de France.
The Trek 8900...possibly the mtb to replace my 9.9, with some upgrades of course.
Pimpy new Aeolus 5.0 ACC wheels...carbon with aluminum rim. Lighter, stronger, and cheaper than my Cosmic Carbones. Might have to make the switch.
The redesigned Race X Lite wheels. Brand new hub body, white spokes, red nipples and freehub body. Lighter and stiffer than Ksyriums.
Top Fuel 9.9 SL, now with disc brakes instead of v-brakes. Evidently it remained the same weight despite that change.
The 69er line has been expanded to include a geared hardtail (pictured) and a Top Fuel model.
The Lemond Tete de Course with SRAM and Aeolus carbon clinchers.
Gary Fisher Superfly 29er...all carbon and very light.
This year's version of Trent's bike, and the official endurance race bike of TBB, the Top Fuel 8.
The Trek Travel area contains a 20-foot high banner that has this pic on the back:
There are a few familiar faces on the far right there. :) That's us at the top of Alpe d'Huez last year. I also recommend checking out the Trek Travel website and looking at the France classic climb trips' galleries. There are lots of pics from our trip there, including a funny one of Heather riding thru a pack of sheep.
Unfortunately my camera battery died, so I missed some other fun stuff (like the new cross bikes and the SRAM Red Project One bike painted with a bunch of frogs). Maybe I will post pics of that stuff later this week.

Wow you guys are famous now! Can I have an autograph or are you gonna be one of those stuck stars, just kidding. The 8900 looks really nice.
