First Trip On The Bus

My first look at the bus I'd heard so much about.

Throughout 2010, I would frequently call riders and staff members of the BMC Racing Team after races. At least 90 percent of the time, they would be "in the bus." Sometimes this meant they couldn't talk to me. Other times, they said they could reply by e-mail because the bus had wi-fi.

So what a nice surprise it was to finally see – and ride on – the BMC Racing Team bus on my way from the airport to the hotel. It's really nice inside. And I heard today that the team is having a new bus built for the 2011 season. Nice.

A nice touch on the seat backs.
