I'm warming up in the Varna. The bike sits in it's own cradel and I can pedal it to warm up |
 |
I'm in the bike taped up ready to launch. This is a tense time, starts are hard anyway and then this year there
was just enough wind to make you nervous |

On Thursday night I derailed my chain about one kilo short of the timing traps. So on Friday Kevin O'dea and Steve
Nash and some other friend made one in the parking lot. Way to go guys, it worked! |
 |
Well it is Nevada! This is what you do, shoot guns! This is actually Saturday and we are about to be rained out
and I needed to release some tension |
 |
Good picture of the Varna and sponsors |

Very good chance we will see Tanya in the driver seat of this bike in 2005 |
