Is the 24 hour race going to be judged by genitals and drive trains, or is it just going to be teams and solo? Goats and Squids (stupid IMHO)? One of the reasons I ask is because I am on the fence as to which bike to ride (I'm racing solo). If there is one solo category gears are obvious, if it's separate fixed/geared then I have a dilemma (prolly fixed).



the important part is doing
the important part is doing the most laps. there might be a fun fastest fixie or something, but the point is doing the most laps and doing them the fastests. Individual # and Team # will both be taken into consideration.
yeah chris is right
We will not give separate recognition for the first fixed or first free. we do not wish to give any special bike any special attention. Ride whatever you like. The NoBrakes Omnium will be a great chance to show off your brakeless fixie skills, so bring both bikes.
seeing as how this race is
seeing as how this race is about 400 years off, i'm not going to worry about it.
...get it? 2407???
*my reaction*
Ha! heh heh... awww...
I'd be for separating by gender
but that would be it. Fixed, squid, goat. You are either the fastest or you are not.
screw you and your
screw you and your semantics.
Got it
But won't the winner be the one to go the farthest. Speed kills?
most laps fastest
most laps
fastest lap
for
dudes
dudettes
and
most laps for team
(if a solo rider has someone on a team do more laps then them, well uh, too bad)
Solo?
So it is OK to race solo? I was a little confused by the rules. Signing up any minute now.
yeah
There's about 10 of us solo riders so far. Anyone have times yet? I'm tryin' to get a feeling for where I'm at. Did route first time last night at 54'29. How's that compare? I'm also gonna brave the slickiness later tonight and put in 2 practice laps if anyone's up for it.
54'29?
thats for 2 laps right?
uh huh,
and your time is?
i have yet to finish even
i have yet to finish even one lap.
it took me at least that long just to find dekalb ave from johnny's even with a map, but now i've got it.
now i am working on remembering the skate escape checkpoint. i am sort of depending on the 10th st road closure to force my memory
Did you walk the route?
Either that, or you stopped for coffee, right?
2 cooler laps last night
The rain last night really cooled things down. The hardest part for me to remember was when to turn for octane. Overshot it and lost like 3 minutes, but I ain't listening to anyone till I hear your time on a complete lap.
Has anyone else even timed themselves? So far my shortcuts have shaved down the distance to 14.34 miles. Taking it little easier I still got down to 50'57. I'm out there every night now if anyone else wants to train.
race categories
X and I gazed over our massive (and secret) pile of prizes last night and hashed out the categories and prizes. Here are most of the categories that will be awarded prizes:
Team Awards (4-6 person team that completes the most laps): 6 deep
Solo Awards (solo rider that completes the most laps): 4 deep
Fastest Lap Overall
Fastest Lap Female (if the above is not won by a female)
Most laps completed by a female rider
Other miscellaneous awards will be decided on the day of the race. Also, there will be separate prizes for the NoBrakes Omnium.
What about
the Prize for the sexiest Brazilian? There ought to be one.
I completely agree.
I completely agree.
Would you like to be considered as a Brazilian Judge?
Sure...
I know you are eager to show the newest work you got done at the salon, but that was not what I had in mind.
But hey, if people want me to judge that kind of Brazilian, I am glad to do it. I figure that yours is probably the only one I wouldn’t really want to see and the other ones are probably rather nice.
zing.
zing.

Is that a Luther burger I spy?
