Tour of Cali

tjsignYes, the 2 Johns did in fact make it to the Amgen Tour of California. As you can see, guerilla marketing techniques were employed by The Western Superfan at the prologue. Thank you WSF. As soon as the coverage aired our Twitter and email lit up with reports of the sign. I am not condoning dangerous or unsavory behavior but, if someone was so inclined, a 2 Johns themed thong-clad wig-wearing body-painting run along side of the peloton (please don’t knock anyone over) just might win you some coveted DeFeet stuff.

We both would have really liked to have gone to the race. I had the opportunity to work for the organization but had to beg off due to scheduling difficulties. The good news is that next week both Johns will MC a gathering in Toledo where some of this country’s finest frame builders will talk about their craft then we’ll attend the North American Handmade Bicycle Show in Indianapolis.

    Sorry no bedazzled speedo emblazoned with the two johns logo it was too cold today. Can’t believe nobody mentioned anything about the 2 porta Johns in the picture.

    Western Superfan – I thought that was a fine picture of the Johns on top of the mountain. I always wondered what John the Abstainer/voice of reason looked like.

    On Wednesday, a man in a Huntington Bank kit with black socks, who police said wishes to remain anonymous brought Armstrong’s bike to police headquarters. The department released a statement saying that “the facts surrounding how the person, we’ll call him “John G”, came into possession of the bicycle are not being released at this time due to an ongoing investigation.”
