Pro bikes - Tom Boonen's Green Tarmac

We recently featured Tom Boonen's custom carbon-fibre Specialized Tarmac SL, seen prior to the Tour de France start in London.

Tom finished the Tour as leader of the Green Jersey competition. To mark this achievement and to match his jersey, Specialized built up a green Tarmac for him to ride into Paris.
