2. The only category in the 2008 count with a change in leadership from the prior year was saddles. Here, Fizik’s Suzette Ayotte celebrates her brand finally surpassing Selle Italia in total saddles among the 1,700+ in the race. Shimano is the only brand to have led its category in every year of the race’s 30 years. Kestrel and Quintana Roo bikes had each been leaders here in the past; now they are rare.  |  Photo: Lennard Zinn
