Weather looks good

Here's the forecast for Sundays event. Sweet. See ya on Sunday.

The race is on for Sunday!

2008-11-05T16:55:00.001-08:00

Yes it's on...rain or shine. I think we will get some rain but will likely dry up in the afternoon. I hear a lot of buzz on trikes getting bought up left and right on Craigslist. So don't wait until Saturday to get your racing gear.

I just made the race map. I'll have them printed and ready to go at Targy's. See ya at 1:00 on Sunday.

Example of the race

What to wear

2008-10-21T11:01:00.000-07:00

Costumes? I personally am gonna wear my motorcycle gear. Helmet and jeans or maybe even some garage cover alls. Costumes are encouraged and helmets are probably a very good idea.

We won't be going crazy fast, but if anything, it adds to the hilarity of it all.

Costumes are also encouraged, so if you want to get more uses out of that halloween costume, bring it along.

Ring ring goes the bell!

2008-10-21T10:49:00.001-07:00

I got my trike. 20 bucks! Thanks craigslist.
Then I proceeded to race my apartment at 5am. I mean, what else am I gonna do between chuggin beers? The neighbors are young, they can deal.

The Triple D Cup awaits!

2008-10-21T10:44:00.000-07:00

Yes, the trophy has been ordered. The glory of the Triple D cup awaits us.

Doing a test run on the trike on Sunday. We shall see how this route goes. And how difficult it is. If it takes too long I may have to cut out the 2nd bar.

GO buy a trike!

They can cost anywhere from $20-60 dollars depending on the condition, best to get them now before all the used ones are gone. http://seattle.craigslist.org/tag/

Otherwise you will have to get one at the dreaded Toys-R-Us. Shudder.
