ROYAL FLUSH - ALLEYCAT


This Sunday! This will be one of the raddest races in Melbourne to date.

"YOU DON’T HAVE TO BE THE FASTEST TO TAKE HOME SOME LOOT!"

The SBC crew - the raddest bike crew in town - have arranged this race with a vegas element so that not only do you collect cards from 5 known checkpoints, there is also a Joker checkpoint that you have to find using a CLUE and YOUR BRAIN. So it won't just be the fastest rider who takes out the prizes.

Once you get all of your cards there is a 6th checkpoint where you can swap your cards to get your best poker hand. Then you race to the end, EASY.

PO PO PO PO PO PO PO POKER FACE

I will be manning one of the checkpoints, come say hi

Um... sorry to break it to you giant BMX: You ain't that giant. Actually you are pretty small.

This bike is cool, but it has a bad case of
small man syndrome.

Like how Tom Cruise apparently never allowed 'Our' Nicole to wear high heels, or those rockabilly type of short dudes that wear those horrendous shoes with the lifts in them.

My lord how I hate those ugly, ugly shoes.

Get ready for your close up:

British convicts pedal to freedom
By staff writers
From: NewsCore
September 17, 2010 10:14AM

TWO teenage convicts pedalled to freedom after they were let out of jail for the day to take a cycling test.
Connor Dewhurst, 14, and Sam Thomas, 13, were allowed to sit their cycling proficiency test - an exam British children must take to prove they can safely ride bicycles on the road.

However, the pair proved rather more proficient than supervisors were expecting as they sped away from a juvenile detention centre in Manchester in northwestern England.
Cops think they pedalled 11km to one of the city's major train stations before hopping on a tram to complete yesterday's escape bid.

Dewhurst had been convicted of attacking a police officer while Thomas was locked up for robbery, Greater Manchester Police said.

They are still on the run.

Nice One. What I don't understand is why you need to take a test to ride a bike, LAWL the poms are nuts.

CYCLING WORLD CHAMPS...

Are in Geelong... wtf?

Who knew? Actually I remember someone telling me but I forgot.

So last weekend is the football grand final so we've decided to get the hell out of Melboune. Gtown was a ghost town aside from all the people working getting ready for the cycling champs.

Slightly eerie.

So many window displays:

That bike has been struck by the disco stick.
