    That's a US style shrader head but the internals of most modern popups support both; what's the make and model if you want to be sure. Don't worry we'll have pumps in the pits aglore I'm sure.

    Let the piling, reducing and packing begin. Finished the last 4.25 hour training ride today; after 12 days of no rest; yep I'm cooked. Bring on the super compensation that goes with taper week and 2 days in the car. Having to plan for people to travel right before the race really puts...

    It'll change but the forecast for Saturday is low of 45F high of 70F; but the windows are projected to be quite a bit at 10-15mph. If the winds stay that high 65-70F is going to feel cold. Depends if that front moves through on Thursday as forcasted. Friay and saturday are of course the only...
