Surly Coopers 4x1 Cup (Case)

I hope we're in (PDogg????)

The Surly Flinging Monkeys are putting up a case of Coopers Pale Ale
for the Singlespeed team that does the most laps on the Saturday
edition of the 12 hour. There are a few simple rules

1. You must include Surly in your team name

2. Bikes must have 1 gear only

3. An exception to rule 2 has been made for Surly Pugsleys (these can
be geared). It's hoped that as a sub event there will be a Pug-Off
for the fastest lap on a Pugsley.

4. The winning team will be expected to share some of their winnings
with the Surly Flinging Monkeys

5. The Surly Flinging Monkeys may change the rules

So far we have

The Surly Flinging Monkeys
The Surly Gits

Didn't go up ingar did you? ingar -> ando's -> oaks, 75(ish) km's, 1600m's vertical 2bfo hills and a couple annoying little grinds... Not going to get much in the way of long rides more than about 3 hours between now and then. Not sure if that's a problem or not. Hopefully I've done enough long rides in the last couple of months...

Looking forward to it! should be fun ;)

Cheers
Gonz - who's new lights are sitting at the post office... mua ha ha ha haaa....

Howdy DaGonz...

nah i was heading for anderson's from wentworth falls end, and when got to the hospital, went the wrong way, kept the hospital on my left, instead of right...:eek: :eek: which resulted in a monster 3km downhill to a locked water board gate, and therefore a nice climb back up the downhill...:rolleyes: :rolleyes: oh well i wanted a good training day out...;) ;)

then found the anderson's....:cool: :cool: and linked it up with the oaks...:D :D

was a great day out...

Hey shrekmeister,
at least the gate was shut, it could have been much worse for you if it wasn't:)
The road doesn't get that much steeper...

Next time the shrekmeister goes out he needs to get someone to write a big L on his left hand and a R on his right hand

Sidewall Tearing Frenzy

That's us, a team of two on Saturday.

Convinced my team-mate to wait until after this and the "Scott" 24hr for the singlespeed conversion..........:D

Watch for me at 8:59pm when my buddy comes into transition and makes me do another lap! Go the three GU's, a coffee and a coke - can't wait till I hit the wall on that one :rolleyes:
