Happy Birthday, Bruce!

Happy birthday to Bruno Clerbout, who gets to celebrate his big day with his three favorite ladies. Congrats, Bruce!

Meanwhile in Kona...

We have a Giro winner!

Apparently many of you were keen on winning a Giro Selector TT Helmet. And, impressively, most gave us the correct answer to the question about which race Bruno Clerbout was shown wearing his customized Giro Selector in: the 2012 Ironman 70.3 Antwerp. Unfortunately there could be only one winner: Filip Van Craenenbroeck. Congrats!
