    I think that's what surprised me by the Specialized ad with the sexy nurse...seriously, Specialized feels the need for that level of desperation?!

    Replacing booth babes with beer?! That would be fine by me. I <3 beer, though.

    When I hear stuff like this - booth babes, beer at the show, etc, and coupled with so many inane articles and columns, not to mention silly advertising, in Bicycling Magazine, it makes me think the entire industry is being run by juvenile young men. Is it "Dumb and Dumber" for the cycling industry?
