First off, big ups to Brothers Cancellara, Gustavoson and Leipheimer. There are no lucky winners in the TT, those guys fought for every second out on the course. Cancellara, the gods indeed favor this one. Brother Z while not in the medals gave his best, pushing himself to limits most of us will never know. That is what The Big Ring is all about.

In all my feeling sorry for myself for not prediction the winner of the mens race I totally ignored the way Kristen Armstrong absolutly OWNED the womens TT. People say she is the Cacellara of womens time trialing, I think it is the other way around. Brother Cancelarra took 33 second out of the Silver medal in 47K, Sister Armstrong took 24 seconds out of Silver in half that distance. Owned.

Tomorrow Brothers and Sisters I will be on course at the Tour of Utah getting pictures and some first hand spectating. Sadly I will miss the finish due to commitments at the cube farm but hopefully I will have some good tales to tell. Two of Utahs favorite sons, Brother Swindlehurst and Brother Louder are sure to be in the mix giving the serious uphill slant of tomorrows stage. Word around the alter is Burrito Boy Jason Donald took V today. Game on in the 801!

BTW if any member of the Big Ring congregation wins the auction for my TT bike on Ebay I will send along one of the new Big Ring T-Shirt and sticker designs.
