1st Annual MRA "Giro d'High Plains" Bicycle Race

[FZRguy]

I move we make the hotly sought after goaticorn a podium finisher trophy. Since all you guys (and gals) can spank me in a moto race, I’d really like to see your tongue on the bar as I lap you. :lol:

David,

Count us in.

Scott "String Bean" Dawson #196
Trina "Rollie Pollie" Dawson #186

[OUTLAWD]

hmm...this is the only way I'll be able to ride that weekend, I'm flying in from MI the night before
who is going to let me borrow a bike?

[bluedevil]

assuming anyone can enter right? MRA racer or not?

[d_mob]

Yep. Bring it!

Or, tell them to bring it.

Whatever, all are welcome.

[peteremsley]

Jack "Firecracker" Emsley is in.

[d_mob]

Look what just arrived on my doorstep!!! Even more shiny and classy than expected. The engraving looks BOSS as well. Will make perfect mantle centerpieces for the winner (er... loser). :lol:

[d_mob]

PS... Unfortunately the golden milking goaticorn is actually just a golden milking goat. Don't worry though. Nothing half a toothpick, a gold paint pen, and a little glue won't fix!

Actually I take that back... I will be outsourcing a fixer to hire a magical little person to fashion a tiny golden milking goaticorn horn and will have it installed prior to the race.

Sorry to cause panic. We'll have this crisis resolved ASAP!

Got ya on the original thread Chris. Also, missed you at the last two supermoto rounds. I need someone to dice it up with in asphalt only!

We now have 43 people committed to either race, be an umbrella girl and/or announce at this thing! May need wave starts. :lol:

It is going to be hilarious watching the madness into turn 1.

[Tumbleweed]

Sorry bro. I blew my motor at the Pueblo round and haven't gotten it fixed yet. Jess was saying I should have picked the name. I am definitly going to get it fixed by the PPIR round but I'm not sure about any sumo this year. Been too busy with the business

Chris "Helicopter" Weed. Haha

run "asphalt A" + do the PPIR round on it. You can go as low as a 36 or 37T on Honda hub. for sure 15, maybe 16 counter shaft.

I am definitly going to get it fixed by the PPIR round...

awesome!!

[phildrummond]

How about we run the Giro right up hot pit lane to provide the best spectating? Crazy dangerous at those speeds, sure, but it'll give everyone a close look at the mayhem. We'd, of course, still have the 45mph speed limit in hot pits...I'll ride my brakes.

[Bartman]

FWIW: I am 31, not 37.

And I don't own a pair of wheels (motor or motor-less) that actually work, so you can scratch my name from the list.

Davie why don't you ride my kawi bike in the single speed class.

Going through the hot pit lane rather than the front straight will be much more fun. Also, start the race on the hot pit lane 50 to 75 yards from the tower.

Fuck that, start it at the bottom of the hill so you gotta work it if you want that holeshot into T1. :lol:

I had heard yesterday that it was around $2500 between the silent auction and the bicycle race.

$2500.00 bucks raised and a good time had by all. I almost crashed when the mankini dude passed me on the back straight.
