Glasgow Fandan Alleycat // SAT 27 FEB 2010
  • rabsdarabsda
    Right, it's been far too long since we had a race about the place, almost a year infact. So I propose a simple good old fashioned A-B-C alIeycat:

    image

    Start point (A) will be the gates of Queen's Park on Victoria Road
    Points B and C will be in other parks in the city and revealed just before the race.
    The overall route is about 6-7miles so should be a fast one.

    Who is up for it? Any problems with the date?

    keeps it a level playing field and within the spirit of the "fixed gear and singlespeed" part of gfgss

    If you've not got a fixed or single-speed, I doubt riding gears will preclude you from the race.

    as long as you promise not to win.

    Aye, that's a promise i can keep. I'll aim for number 2, out of politeness an that. ;)

    I made a facebook event as well - http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=272555082485

    RSVP and invite anyone you know who'd be interested. i'll send a wee reminder out the day before via this as well.
  • rustyrusty
    The flyer says to bring beer. Is this going to be part of the race?
  • rabsdarabsda
    not really but i think it is important
  • JoshvegasJoshvegas
    its extra weight though :(
  • rabsdarabsda
    well you can drink it first

    Beer = Courage.

    I'll bring some Buckfast.

    surely if you drink it you are carrying the extra weight with added disadvantage of co-ordination?

    minus the weight of the can. and also a tactical piss could be taken... :)

    aye basically the beer thing is just for the end while we wait on the slow cunts before decanting to the pub. Last time I bought a case of beer but there's no entry fee this time so it's bring your own tin...
