Does anyone who isn't racing on Tuesday fancy joining an alternative event? I think there are a few of us who are ineligible for the ZRL champions league - perhaps if there is an "all categories start together" race on Tuesday then we could have anyone who isn't taking part in ZRL but fancies a race joining that?

@<Tommy> @Whorty

Edit - what about this? http://zwift.com/events/view/2994701

Starts at 19:10 on Tuesday with all categories visible and starting at the same time?

The route is "Out and back again" - an early sprint and a couple of climbs

I could be up for that ... I like the all cat start events as we can all be in the correct pen, but theoretically be in the same race (well, for the first 2 mins until I'm spat out the back by the A's ). Lee can join too, so he can feel the love again

A practical trophy. Love the sound of it.

Here's a sample I knocked up this morning. I have included all riders who rode at least once during the season.
500ml (18 fl.oz) tankard £10.00 or 1 pint (20 fl.oz) straight glass £9.00 posted 2nd class to a UK address (sorry Jeff will have to check postage to USA if your'e interested). I can change the format if anyone has any better suggestions.

Sounds like you lot had fun ! Well done all
Don’t think I could have helped even if I could , my style of riding till I pop means I have nothing to contribute to a team , but I guess that team thing where you help each other out where ever you can is wonderful

They are so lush ...

 

[Whorty]

To go off at a tangent slightly .... Facebook keeps showing me adverts for some lush bikes.It clearly thinks by getting a new bike I'd somehow be faster. The Specialized Atheos is on the adverts (chap in Tenerife had one, I assume it's the 'only' reason he beat me up the mountains each day) .... anyway ... question ... if money was no object, which bike would be your ultimate (or if not complete bike, which components).

I may be up for this. Dragging my C numbers up a climb or two will do me some good.

The surprising bit is that they waited with this for so long - the lay offs that is. It's obvious that the customer base will correct over the upcoming year - they won't need as many people.

As for hardware - well, I'm not sure anyone ever treated it seriously, really.

Awful for those that lost jobs. The whole hardware thing seemed like a bit of hubris didn't it.

I think maybe you guys are selling yourselves a bit short with just getting tankards. May I be the first to suggest an open top bus parade around the country?
