Photos of Lance during a wind tunnel test today

Team Astana’s top GC riders meet today at the Allied Aerospace Low Speed Wind Tunnel in San Diego, California. Alberto Contador, Levi Leipheimer, and “new” teammatelancewind034.jpg Lance Armstrong worked on their time-trial positions on the new Trek prototype bikes and testing Giro helmets.

Contador had this to say, “We will work with my sponsors, Trek and Giro, for the next season. I am going with a lot of motivation, because the races are won by very little time [difference] and with the time trial I still have a good margin for improvement,”

I wonder what the mood was between the teammates? There was a lot of ego inside that tunnel today. Since I’m a photo editor here at The Journal News I can look at all the images that where sent through the Associated Press today from the test. Interestingly the only rider in any of the photos was Lance Armstrong. lancewind032.jpg
