The ocean of bikes ready to race tomorrow. One thing that struck me is how many athletes are now riding relatively high-end bikes. This is a very serious field of age groupers.
This year's Lonestar 70.3 is going to be a battle royale. And there's no denying the draw: Lance Armstrong is returning for his second race as a pro triathlete, off the heels of his impressive debut in Panama. The famous Texan will be joined tomorrow by a cadre of top names including Michael Raelert, Marino Vanhoenacker, Tim O'Donnell, and T.J. Tollakson . The women's side is nothing to scoff at either, with the likes of Leanda Cave, Amy Marsh, Caitlin Snow, and Heather Wurtele leading the charge. Here's our pre-race gallery from the expo, which will be followed up with more coverage of the event tomorrow, and some post-race stuff on Monday.
True to its name, this race by the ocean had an expo right on the beach. We're here covering the race, so be sure to check back for more as the weekend rolls on.
