Forget everything I said. Trek's ProTour team will rock!

From left to right you're looking at John Burke, President of Trek Bicycles, Jens Voigt, Andy Schleck and Fabian Cancallara. And from the looks of it, they're in the process of being vaporized. So much for the iPhone's low-light capabilities!

It's going to be a great 2014 for Trek with these guys riding the competition into the ground. Jens Voigt, Andy Schleck & Fabian Cancallara.

Trek put up a list of reasons why it's better to own a team than just be a sponsor; one of them was that you had control over who was on the team so you could hire only "good guys." Wonder who that was pointed at?

2013 has been a really bad year for the bike biz nationwide, but thankfully both for ourselves and Trek, not so bad. We're actually up for the year (more $$$ in sales than last), and Trek is down a lot less than their competitors. From what I've seen today, next year is going to be very, very good. Unless the weather is very, very bad!
