Title: Final Mid-Week Event is 'What Do You Think You're On -Speed Competition'
Post by: traine on August 21, 2014, 09:44:22 AM

Yes, it is on again.

Get out the Butcher Boy Bike, the tandem and the ladies Mountain Bikes again for this final event.

Club members only may invent their own category of bike e.g. a fixie with aero bars or  low pro without aero bars, a mountain bike with kiddy trailer etc. Win your category and your name goes into a hat. The first three names out of the hat win prizes, to be presented at the Road Mans Night Out in October.

The prizes are exceptional. Donated by other club members. Items of cycling memorabilia which are no longer loved. We have had Knitted cycling Teddies, 1980's road race prizes and Magic Dragons. Look out for new treats this year !

Fix those punctures and get out there for a fun night ! Why not add some interest by finding some unusual kit to wear too. I have a Funeral Directors top hat and tails if anyone is 5'7'', not too porky and wants to borrow ! Bermuda shirts have been done but not Bermuda shorts, or wet suits ! ! ! ! ! Ugh !

Pretty sure there is still a unicycle in my shed if anyone wanted to borrow it.  ;)
