Copy_of_gala_017Copy_of_gala_014Also on hand were journalists from top-tier outlets such as The New York Times, ESPN.com, Financial Times, CyclingNews.com, Bicycling and VeloNews. If you weren’t able to make it to Boulder, you can enjoy the highlights through these reports and at VeloNews TV, which has the team introduction, audience Q&A and Jonathan Vaughters’ assurance that the team which last year needed its supporters to believe will reward those fans with more wins. And we at the Garmin blog will continue to reward Team Garmin’s fans with more behind-the-scenes stories, Flickr photos, Twitter updates and YouTube videos.

Copy_of_gala_016_2 Gala_121 Gala_120 The Q&A session – which gave Dave Zabriskie, Mike Friedman and Wiggins a chance to entertain the crowd and David Millar and Christian Vande Velde a chance to energize the crowd – wasn’t the only opportunity for audience interaction as items were auctioned and raffled. The first item up for bid was the first official membership of the Argyle Club, which offers Garmin discounts, a free Chipotle burrito each week for a year as well as Team Garmin gear. Soon we’ll be sharing more information about how you can join the Club and become an integral part of the team. Also on the auction block were one of Vande Velde’s bikes from France and his Giro d’Italia maglia rosa. The highlight of the raffle came when one of the youngest fans in the audience walked up to the stage with her dad to claim their prize: a 2008 team edition Felt F1 road bike, complete with Shimano Dura-Ace, Zipp 303 wheels, wireless PowerTap and, of course, a Garmin Edge 705. And the winning didn’t end when the curtains closed. Stay tuned to the Garmin blog to find out how you can win an argyle-clad care package from one of our VIP guests.
