I wrote the Tracker application and after 4 weeks of sleepless nights, I so glad folks in the cycling community are pleased. Yes, we had lots of back-end issues (so sorry to folks who couldn't get GPS or Video, or worse the application at all from Amgen's web server) but I hope that people enjoyed it when it was all on line. As for the Flickr connection, fans will not be able to have there photos show up as the sponsors understandably want editorial control over what photos are shown with their branding. Maybe I should build a "cycling fan version" without branding too? Anyway, if you or your readers are interested in learning more about the Tracker, see http://www.allanpadgett.com/blog where I'll be describing both the technical and cycling-related challenges I faced in building the app. Oh, for the record, Levi does NOT like wearing extra stuff while riding...
