This is an awesome story about giving up your wheel... long read, but you can just scan through the pictures and get the basics
Notice how bobby julich has a zipp front and a not zipp rear wheel....

Let me paraphrase: Some random guy (a fan, not a team member) is riding along the sidewalk watching the ToC. Bobby Julich rides up behind him and says, "Give me your rear wheel." Bobby's rear Zipp was shredded from hitting a curb. The guy does. That's the dude's rear wheel in the above pic. The guy tracks down Bobby in his hotel and Bobby says he'll send his wheel back with some stuff from the team.

I heard the synopsis on the Fredcast, and David actually interviewed the guy. What a cool story. I hadn't seen the pics, but that's pretty awesome.
