mo wants me to race this

well, what Mo wants, Mo gets, right? ;)

i'm reeeeeally trying to get a ride/rental vanmates for this. what do you say tink?

i'm so so soooo there...

i'm in for a van-mate plus one. i really hope she doesn't cancel on me, because then i need to find a new girl to enter with.

is anyone from nyc driving up there. i sooo need to do this race. i have money and a sleeping bag. let me know. I also need a partner. I'm female if that helps

Well, you did say you wanted to hang out with the Pirates... Seems like a bunch of us are going, so if you don't find a ride from NYC you can prolly tag along with us if you can get here.

ohh baldylocks, good looking out. yea, i can be there thursday night. ok, hopfully someone from the city is going so i don't have to put u guys out, but if not, move over, just need room for my bike and I.

Keep us posted

dylandom:
i'm not on the NYC-specific board... maybe if you post there you can find a partner or ride?

hey hey. Nov 11th is my girls birthday and the 12th is mine. Both our 21st birthdays. This could be a fun EXTRAVAGANZA

did you see that Pabst is a sponsor?
cuz they are.
(that means free beer.)

is sadie hawkins the one who sings damn i wish i was your lover because that was a good song



...might can drive over with someone willing; plane = no

this race is sexist and anti-gay.

or, alternatively, the race is pro-girl! nobody's making you sleep with your race partner. gay men can just sign up with a girl. big dealio.

Chalk another one up from Boston...

Dear Abby,

My girlfriend's far away; can I date someone else for a night without telling her?

-Curious in Cincinnati.

i think abby would say yes.

Can I sign up with a transgender person?

ps, this is a serious question.

Please tell me you aren't serious

I'm pretty sure they'll be checking genitalia at the door.

my race partner is.

here's what you need to know:
the goal of this race is to get women, who are underrepresented at races, to come out and race.
if a person self-identifies as a woman, and isn't just saying that to get out of paying the $40 reg (which goes to a good cause, I should add!), that's totally cool.

I think it's a good idea.

brean was trying to get this off the ground in nyc like teh LL race a while back
