    Had to steal (er, share) this photo off of bikeforums - the crazy guy in the background is taxi777 (Pete), one of the guys I've met from the NorCal regional forum, paying homage to the cycling gods Phil, Paul and Bobke.



    Pete's a hoot.


    Lots of other great photos are showing up on this thread:

    I'm sooooo jealous. I want to come next year. Does it always start in Palo Alto? I'm in a gallery on University Ave, so it could be a business trip .

    Prologue photos

    Here they are - on Flickr - I think this guest pass will work!
    BikerZ's prologue photos

    (thanks to Jo for help with the IDs! Clearly, I am a total newbie stalker!)

    (And, if anyone has any IDs for anyone, feel free to leave a comment and I'll update the photo name,)

    And Jo insisted I post this one of George Hincapie as a public service!
