Cool, BusterB! Did you get to the vendor area? Apparently, our LBS (Davis Wheelworks) was the only retail vendor there. Bob Roll hung out with them for quite a while - actually with the LBS's owner's wife.
They had 2 Cervelo TT bikes with them - one a CSC team build and one their own custom component mix. Both are signed by Ivan now and will be clearcoated prior to sale. Apparently, Bjarne Riis thought the custom component set-up was better than the team build. The boys were stoked!
The shop guys wore a bunch of the really gawdy bike shoes that no one buys on which they had glued flip-flop soles, changing the shoes to "Apres-Ride" shoes. They came back with 10 orders (including Bob's) for something that was just a joke!
