I wonder if Radio Shack will hire his cousin Bobby Busche to hand out water bottles?

boo-Shay…hmmm… any relation to Bobby? He could wind up carrying so high quality H2O to the guys in the front.

Matt is a class rider and we're so happy to see a local make it big. At the Tour De Tucson Sat, he also showed his smarts, protecting himself by not getting tangled up with us cowboys sprinting in for a touring “victory”. Smart and nice guy. He should do well.

Regarding your new site. The format of viewing a photo by clicking on it inside an article and having it take you directly to the gallery and being able to click a photo to go to the next photo is the best format. Using smaller photos with flash sucks. Also, don't lock out the photos. Occasionally, fans probably like to save pictures of there cycling heroes. Larger photos in a gallery are the best format for clarity and detail. That is why photos are important, if they are too small, like in a flash presentation such as your beta experiment, they are not clear nor enjoyable because of lack of detail and you might as well not have a gallery if the photos are small with poor resolution. The old format worked fine. New isn't necessarily better. I have designed web sites and taught myself from scratch. The old photo gallery design worked well, but the photos should not be locked out. I hope my opinion has been helpful. Take the time to acknowledge what works well before throwing the baby out with the bath water. A site needs to load quickly, navigation needs to be user friendly and simple, and most importantly, the links need to work and be interconnected in a logical way.

When all the stars align and a talent is recognized it is great to see such a calm confident rider like Busche get the nod to the big leagues.
