Rides and Races - Boston's Really Stupid Alley Cat - March 24th

http://farm1.static.flickr.com/168/415113042_4a28a590a6.jpg

since there isn't anything planne for the rest of the month, and there is hardly any time to promote it, i'm throwing together a small race just for poops and chuckles.

it will be a good time and fairly difficult.


this race will be hitting up almost every college in the boston area.

that's intense.

Yeahhhhhhh!!!!!!

In!

i just mapped this out on the gmaps pedometer....

this is NOT going to be easy. FYI

that is alot of colleges! lets just hope I do not have to work this saturday. their have me working on st. pat's day what sucks alot.

BC is going to be so cruel.

There had better be an engineering CP, you know, where the rider has 30 sec. to do calculus or some stuff, like, write memos, pretend to work, I dunno. (But it can't involve spelling or talking to girls.)

F*CK YOU SCOTT! andrew, john, and i had this idea and were going to be designing a race like this!

I think everyone's thought of it..

LAME. I'm not sure if I'll be able to make this race.

Woo hoo! I have a chance now!

Google gets:

Results 1 - 10 of about 22,000,000 for boston area college.

Wow.

i'm pretty up in the air about this race, but if you ride by emerson college, shout DROP OUT!!! at as many kids as you can. do it for me. please.

LAME. I'm not sure if I'll be able to make this race.

what's the matter luke? scared?!

what's the matter luke? scared?!

Nah. It'll be the week after I move and I'm not sure if I'd feel like coming back down yet. If I do come I'll work a checkpoint (I haven't done that for a while) I feel like I need to do my time. I'll let you know. Unless you REALLY want me to race.

well, i could use some more checkpoint people.... hmmm


BC is going to be so cruel.

HAHA you think BC is going to be the biggest of your worries?! HAHAHAHA

Looks like I'll be changing my hours at work to make this one too. If my EMT class fell on that day it would be so much easier, but it doesn't.

F*CK YOU SCOTT! andrew, john, and i had this idea and were going to be designing a race like this!
I have an idea for one if you want to use that. It is kind of also educational.......

i too have an educational/nerdy idea for an alley cat that i'm working on.

also, BC is nothing compared to tufts. i dont think i ever realized how far out it is.

i got lost once and ended up at tufts. it's not a big deal.

Tufts, thats like barely a mile from davis square.

is there anyone who isn't racing that may want to work a check point?

PM me.

thanks

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Seriously, though. Will there be a Brandeis checkpoint?

I vote yes.

I love the title of the race.

I vote no on Brandeis. I work a half mile from that campus in this shady ass industrial/low-income area.

Wellesley college would suck too. Way the f out there, and there's lots of hills.

Yeah but CHICKS.

On the other hand: I've never met a happy Wellesley girl.

hmm. and here i thought stupid girls did the checkpoints to try and pick up boys, but little did they know guys don't give a care mid-race!

:)

It's true!

any hints on check points or milage so i can choose my bike accordingly? and do we really need a calculator?

no and yes... unless you're smart

Hint: Ride a tricycle.. one of those little red ones from when you where like 4... that way maybe you won't finish in some ungodly time that makes the rest of use look bad..

no and yes... unless you're smart

scott it's st. patty's day.. I thought for sure you of all people would be ****faced right now...

Baby, Scientific or Graphing?

psh. you people and your modern technology.
I'll be rolling with this baby.

f*ck you all, i'm bringing my abacus.

Yeah but CHICKS.

On the other hand: I've never met a happy Wellesley girl.

dude. i ****ing grew up in wellesley. **** that school, **** that town.

Ill do it, although i should probablly get a rear wheel that fits correctly.

My bag has a custom sized pocket for my TI-89.

This is my race. Watch out you non-nerdy mutha ****as!

bump.


and...

we all knew this is going to be a quick thrown together race, just for the sake of racing, but lack of checkpoint people will not allow me to continue with the plan i originally had for this race so the number of checkpoints has been cut down and they will be moved farther away.

making the race, even more, of a pain in your ass.

good day.

and don't forget about the bike swap sunday.

moscow has all the info... and i need to call you.

Yeah, i don't think i can race saturday... but the swapmeet is on for sunday and i am excited. I hope the weather is nice.

[edit] like i said, i'm going to try and make sure there are tunes and a hot grill. so if people want to bring some stuff to cook, beers, etc, feel free.

want to work a checkpoint?

P.S. what's the address again?

where is the swap meet going to be?

I can't work a checkpoint. If i could work a checkpoint i would just race. The problem is that I have too much schoolwork to do and a project to work on. It's killing me. All i want to do is ride. So you all better have good stories to tell me over some beers on sunday.

Address is:
9 Gordon St., Allston
Time: 12-5
Notes: People should come around back and can throw bikes in the basement and get to the deck and yard from there.

where does this race start?

i think since the race is spread out we should get the checkpoints especially if they are going to be off of a map of boston.

maybe i can work a checkpoint. is it too late?
