In Another World

I just got back from Trek World in Madison, Wis. This is the dealer show where Trek shows us the line for next year. I saw a lot of people, including buddies Frank Maguire and Jimbo Malta from Mt. Nittany Wheelworks (above, with me), Gravel Rouser champ Brian Matter, and superstars Greg LeMond, Travis Brown and Gary Fisher (wearing a pantsuit). But more importantly (according to Trek), I saw a lot of stuff: the new Trek Top Fuel with a 69 platform, a full carbon Gary Fisher 29’er, and Trek’s new Fuel EX design, which has the rear pivot directly on the rear axle, providing better suspension under hard breaking. On the road side, the new Madone is completely redesigned, including a full carbon fork. There will be some fun new toys to play with in 2008, I guarantee it!
