Tom Hosts Grand Opening of Bicycle
Village in Littleton, Colorado
April 8th, 2006 |

Cycling fans turned out to meet Tom,
get an autograph, and go on a casual group ride outside Denver, Colorado.
Tom was the guest of honor at the grand opening of Bicycle Village's new
store location. On a picture-perfect morning, over one hundred lucky participants
gathered at the store for a ride with Tom.
Earlier in the day, Tom raced the Oredigger Classic — a time trial
up Lookout Mountain in Golden, Colorado. |

The group gathers in nervous anticipation
of the effort ahead of them.

An early break has formed and Tom has made
the split.

On the descent of the Littleton Bike Path,
Tom has lost ground after a "nature call".

 |
Luckily, the group decides to take a break
to ask Tom when the Tour de Georgia begins.

| |
 |
After 3 more breaks, 2 direction changes,
1 broken chain, 1 crash and an untold
number of dropped riders,
Tom brings home the bunch with a big sprint of over 17mph.

After the ride, Tom signed autographs. The
line was long, but the people were patient,
and everyone got a chance to meet Tom and have something signed.
