Pointless Prize 2024 – #Flag

[bigredboiler]

Two Updates for all:

1. I’ll have to ship individually to winners (email me your address or DM on Strava…we need to follow each other + you have to give Strava your birthdate to enable DM).  Hopefully my silly prize idea actually works out (sourcing from shady China website, so don’t hold your breath :).   Alan – I’ve sent an order to your address.  Waiting to verify they shipped what I am expecting before I place orders for others.
2. Summary of some statistics and “facts” from the pointless prize below

Kris – If someone breaks into my house and cleans me out while I’m on a ride, I’ll know who to blame!

I’ll certianly let you know if/when I get something.

I’m still upset I did not get a MS flag.  I got one from all the others.  I’ll make sure I get it eventually.

Hey Kris, I can’t figure out how to DM on this forum. I’m S Lifsey on Strava, can you add me?

[AlanA]

@rumpuscat – I also sent Kris an email to try and get you your prize (I assume you were the one who talked to me about the prize at the HH).

[bigredboiler]

@rumpuscat – reposting my earlier post (and see page 89 for another post w/my email).  DM me on Strava (after you enable DM) or email me….unless you want to post your address here 🙂    …congrats!

Follow-up…I could only DM @cvccalhoun, @AlanA, @rumpuscat, @Indiana….everyone else, let me know how to reach you to get your address and/or email me (see above).  To enable DM on Strava, I had to add my birthdate (month/year) to my profile.  Probably same for you if you’re interested in enabling.
