Yep, that's my boy, holding up the orange flag! I was a Volunteer Coordinator for the races this year and one of my main responsibilities was the course marshalls. Henry worked Wednesday and Friday nights and all day Saturday. The glory boys may be those sprinting to the finish line, but the volunteers make this all work. I had the privilege of working with dozens of these folks and the races went great. Henry was one of many who worked multiple shifts and days and I am legitimately proud of him. You can read the account of the racing stuff in Velonews; this photo is from Mankato's Stage 5. The photo is by Kurt Jambretz of Action Images, though I added the arrow!

Don't let the fame go to his head.

Matt,
In 2006, you posted a blog entry re a Wall St Journal article and made mention of Exxon Graftek bikes. I have a Graftek but not the same construction as the late 1970s models. Do you have any idea who continued to manufacture CF bikes under the Graftek name? The one I have has a serial # 0045985.

Hi,
I'm working with Takkle.com, a social networking site for sports. Members can post photos, videos, share stats and schedules, and a whole lot more with others throughout the community. Takkle is a place where students, athletes, coaches, and fans can share their passion for sports.
I feel that your site is very useful. I would love to know if you could link to our social networking resource.
Thanks,
Sandi
