TdF Champ walking bike uphill?

Photos and Video

Zippo · 08-24-2008, 09:21 AM

yeah, you know it's a HAB when you see those two pushing their steeds.

Pain Freak · 08-24-2008, 09:25 AM

I heard yesterday one of the owners of Hermosa Tours who is also know as Sandy Utah or as some of us know him as Fullface Nate took 7th.That's freekin world class! And most everyone here knows Manny. Nate used to be a local here too till they moved out to CO and now have Hermosa going.

That video was very well done and I just hope Lance comes back to try again.

Kaboom · 08-24-2008, 10:36 AM

Manny Prado from Team Sho-Air took third. He's a local guy that's been getting faster every season.

Looks like Deejay Birch SS madman and Linda Eckhart cazy women in the SS class and some guy named Lance? Whats the worlds coming to? No Hotels, just racing, camping beer , music and a whole lot of dam good people people

I am pretty stoked to be lining up with such a cool field this Saturday. Maybe I will shift gears and become an over-trained photo journalist instead? Or maybe I will be that guy (like in the NY Marathon) that charges out in front for the first couple of miles to get on TV. I bet even with an all out effort I still couldn't beat Lance to aid station 1.

Look forward to the RR next week!

m210 · 09-02-2008, 09:26 AM

this one is on my schedule for next year, for sure.

boludo · 09-02-2008, 09:55 AM

Good luck. I'd play the "rabbit" too if there is TV coverage.

Blue Rat · 09-02-2008, 10:36 AM

Good luck dude!!

Pain Freak · 09-02-2008, 06:53 PM

Wow, what a line up.

boludo · 09-03-2008, 07:11 AM

Luke, are you related to David Wiens?

lukewiens · 09-07-2008, 06:50 PM

well...i guess the lance thing was just some rumor. but here is some quick news from the tahoe sierra 100.

jeremiah bishop and chris eatough finish hand in hand, first place at 7:02. josh tostado finished at 8:23. 12 hours of temecula #2 winner dez wilder finished 2nd in the singlespeed cat. with a 7:49.

i saw tinker there on saturday but didn't see him during the race...maybe he dnf'ed or pulled out last minute.

all in all the race was a tough one but i conquered. finished in 9:27 for a top 25 result in open men....stoked!!!

results here

i will post the full RR on my blog tomorrow and try to throw something up here as well. thanks everyone for all of the good wishes!!

Thanks Carl....and yeah man, I have some wine with your name on it. Maybe we can hook up this weekend for a leisurely paced ride (taper)??

Pain Freak · 09-23-2008, 05:48 AM

Maybe a little redemention, Lance beat Dave Wiens in a 3 man relay team race. Check it out:

I'm wondering why he's doing mtb racing so much? I think he really knows how much fun it can be.

EBasil · 09-23-2008, 10:16 AM

But Wiensey beat him at Leadville and still got an AARP discount on prime rib after the race.

shudder · 09-23-2008, 10:19 AM

"It is unclear where Lance will race next as his comeback tour continues..."

I vote for 12 HOURS OF TEMECULA in November!!!!!!!
