You've seen them head to head over Hanslip, take the gloves off over pacelines, beat their chests on the Bakery Bunch. Graphs have been produced, tantrums thrown and laws of thermodynamics broken. But you ain't seen nothing yet. This is it. Mano a mano. Two go in. One comes out.

Event 1: SuperCrit Thursday 26th Nov: Sprinters' paradise
Event 2: Road Race Sunday 29th Nov: SFP to the end of the bitumen and back, a climber's pain.
Event 3: The Decider - Live forum debate on the premise "that CCC is the greatest cycling club in the country". With a twist. Dwyer arguing the affirmative, Sparkles the negative.

slight problem.

I'm an unlikely starter for either of the first two and my jaded mindset over club politics and general disinterest/apathy on that particular topic could make it difficult to give a hearty argument either way.

How about we just duke it out in the Alleycat on Dec 12. You can provide your own singlespeed or I can arrange one for you - complete with beer can snippets and cable ties for sprocket spacers on the repco super deluxe 10. seeing as you like a twist - we have to stop at every checkpoint for a pint....

Now that's a race. Better yet we could do it courier style with secret checkpoints along the way. Mass start to the first check, second location recieved upon arrival and so on. Beers optional.

I think you'll find that is an Alleycat :)

Stand by for more info on it from the resident fixie/single guru.

I have never ridden a fixie in my life. I don't like where these rules are heading.

Jamie is V-Maxx parked under my building in Allara st? Something very very similar is chained up downstairs. Also there is an orange monster that I think the the World's Heaviest Bike TM. I'll take a picture of both later on.
