Amber Nebben's TT bike

Did anyone happen to notice this picture?

I'm not up on her situation, but why would Amber, who's riding for a team sponsored by a bike company, be using a machine from a competitor? If she signed late and her Bianchi bike wasn't ready yet, I might be able to understand that.

If the team was just sponsored by BMW, I never would havepicked up on this.

Yes, I know I misspelled her name in the subject.

She's a guest rider on that team for Redlands only. I doubt they would give her a bike for just one race.

I think she's technically without a team for 2010, as her German team lost its sponsor and fell apart at the last minute.

Thanks!

That makes a ton of sense.
