Huffy is Retired. Stella is Broken. Stealth is Flying>Literally
No, no Huffy this year. After 1,500 miles he's enjoying a much deserved retirement from being my wheels since Age 5. I'll be flying in to ATL from Seattle with my Stealth in tow. lemme explain...
When the frame cracked on Stella (the wonderful track bike gift I received at last year's 24 race) Aero_70 gave me a tall, jet-black, bare-bones late 70's Raleigh frame. I've spent the last 9 months sinking money ($1K) and miles(2K) into 'Stealth' in preparation for not just surviving the 24, but really doing it justice! Now with SPD's, butt pads, aero bars, and a full Shimano drivetrain w/ a 53 front, I'd say it's a long way from platform pedals, boxers, and a banana seat.
Rockin'
I am going solo too, under the Fahrradgemeinschaft umbrella. You put in an impressive distance last year, so that is what I have on my sights.
What are you shooting for?
Last year I did 220. This year I'm shooting for 300+ like Mouhamed and Tim last year. Up for it?
TNT got you scared?
You're not dropping out of the team category because you're scared of getting beat by a bunch of girls, uh?
Nope
I figured I can beat you singlehandedly, hence the solo bid.
I might amputate one of my legs and gouge out my eyes to give you a chance.
TNT Rocks
Of course... we all knew that.
Glad I dodged that bullet and did not race directly against y'all.
yeah,
that woulda been scary. So we'll be the outta town duo next year, right? We'll have to come up with a clever team name, and I'll have to come up with a new/refurbished bike.
It's a date!
Under faraghawhatchamacallit, of course.
of course!
of course!
The Gentlemen of Leisure did
The Gentlemen of Leisure did race directly against TNT, and being the Gentlemen that we are, let the ladies go first :-)

That is what I would like to do.

Johnny's Friday August 29 8-10pm Registration
I'll be at Johnny's this Friday, from 8-10pm, collecting registration info and taking your money if you want to avoid the google fee. If you're registering your team, have all their emails and all their money!
Look for a guy w/ a red beard, short hair, and glasses.

these bells?
these bells?
Seriously go clean out some
Seriously go clean out some bike stores and have tons of bells for sale at Johnny's.
As my mother would say
Hell's bells and panther tracks!
roger
What about the bells?
Hear the sledges with the
Hear the sledges with the bells -
Silver bells!
What a world of merriment their melody foretells!
How they tinkle, tinkle, tinkle,
In the icy air of night!
While the stars that oversprinkle
All the heavens, seem to twinkle
With a crystalline delight;
Keeping time, time, time,
In a sort of Runic rhyme,
To the tintinnabulation that so musically wells
From the bells, bells, bells, bells,
Bells, bells, bells -
From the jingling and the tinkling of the bells.
125 people pre-registered.
125 people pre-registered. We only have a set number of RFID cards, so it's in your best interest to register now! We'll take as many teams as we can but it depends on how many people are solo and how many are in big teams, etc!
so how many solo so far?
so how many solo so far?
btw people, don't eat/bite your RFID card (see profile pic). It makes it not work.
I don't know the solo count
I don't know the solo count because some people register as 1 person even tho we ask them not to, and some people that are solo have registered but not paid so they're not official yet. And some people that we know are participating haven't registered yet.
I'd say that you'll have some competition!
it doesn't matter how many
Alex will break you.
