Exposed

Stopped by Mellow Johnny's early today to hear and see Bike Snob NYC. He's in town for a book signing. Instead of the usual reading most authors give, he gave a slide show of his childhood and the bikes he rode. Amusing guy, but I liked him better when he was anonymous. Now, when I read his column, I'll think of a middle-ish-age Jewish guy with a bald spot and a new baby boy. Not that there's anything wrong with that - just not a very edgy image. Oh, and he even has a name - Eben Weiss.


While I was at MJ's (that's what all the cool kids call it), I also had a chance to check out the new Team RadioShack bikes. That's Popo's on the end.


The graphics are very in-your-face. Very different from the Merckx bikes of the 7-11 and Motorola days.
