I am jealous too. I'd love to give Floyd a big hug. The other fellow,
he's just too cute!

Ok, I have to add my own "Oooh, you're so lucky, I'm so jealous!!" to this list. Floyd and DZ are definitely my favorite pro riders, as much for their personalities as for their riding ability. Did you see much goofiness? How was the racing? Ya gotta tell us more!
Excellent photos, by the way, Bluetree. Have you gotten them framed yet??"How about if we all just try to follow these very simple rules of the road? Drive like the person ahead on the bike is your son/daughter. Ride like the cars are ambulances carrying your loved ones to the emergency room. This should cover everything, unless you are a complete sociopath."

It was fun. Floyd seemed like a very warm, friendly guy. David seemed a bit shy, but he's like that in all the interviews I've seen.
DZ is one of my faves. On a bike, that man is perfection... watching him in a time trial is like watching living art. (In horse terms, we'd call him a 'beautiful mover')
I did forget to ask him one thing -- as always seems the case
I wanted him to send a message back to the Cervelo guys... make smaller bikes! Honestly, I'd love to buy a Cervelo tri bike, but the standover/bike wedgie thing makes it a no-go. Hey Cervelo... not everyone is 6 feet tall! ** sigh **
(In the picture, the reason I'm standing behind DZ is because he had to bend his knees quite a bit to get his face near mine. Floyd is not a tall guy, but I was wearing boots with a 3-inch wedge heel!)
