So I was just riding along when...

i felt what i thought was the saddle tipping back on me. upon inspection the saddle was in fact not loose, which caused me to look the bike over more closely. looking further down the seat tube and what do i see? to be truthful i have ridden this bike VERY hard so i can't really complain about the failure. aluminum does have a finite life span after all and it has served me in a spectacular fashion. trek has always been good with warranty issues in the past, and thankfully this trend has conituned. i was in the shop yesterday, East Coast Bicycles by the way, and i was told that this would be a no brainer to warranty. i'm just glad that it was a simple failure and not a catostrophic one like my klein was.
