Who is playing Freezing Saddles??? (teaser)

[chuxtr]

If you registered (or think you registered) for Freezing Saddles and want to know if you made it in, below is a list (alphabetical by forum name) of the riders assigned to team. This way, you’ll know if rides starting tomorrow will be Freezing Saddles rides even if you don’t know what team you’re on. And maybe it will give y’all some added incentive to come to the HH on January 10th to find out what team you’re on. Some caveats:

1. Two riders aren’t listed because their forum names are email addresses. As a matter of policy for reasons of privacy, we don’t publish anyone’s email address or their actual name without their permission. So said persons are being contacted to find out if it’s OK to list their email address or if they want to change their forum names.

2. Consider this a provisional list. Everyone will have one more wicket to navigate to be official. Yes, another test of your ability to follow directions. Team captains will invite their team members to join the team via Strava after the HH. YOU HAVE TO DO THAT! If you don’t (after a reasonable grace period … usually measured by a few days), then your team captain will probably contact me asking for a substitute. If you get substituted, you’ll get put at the back of the wait list queue.

3. For those of y’all who registered but aren’t on a team, you may get added to a team at a later date (see #2 above). If that happens, your miles retroactive to January 1st will count.

Please feel free to PM or email me the_penas at Yahoo dot com if you have any questions.

Updated to include the people in #1 above + withdrawals and new players.

Who are the captains and what do they each wish they got from Santa?
What constitutes the fine line between currying favor & just sounding clingy, needy, creepy etc.

Asking for some wanna be “Friends of BAFS”

Wait list members who don’t end up on teams (if any) will be Friends of BAFS. Or Slackers. Or Team Chopped Liver. Regardless, they are welcome at happy hour.

Schmoozing captains won’t help, though. You’d have to schmooze chuxtr. I have no idea how susceptible to bribes he is.

You can walk on to team 18. I’ll kick off anyone who doesn’t hit the 100 mile per week minimum.

I’ll likely Uber to/from HH, so will gladly accept bribes in the form of beers.

However, accepting bribes in no way indicates the usefulness of said bribes.

Is it too late to sign up for BAFS? I want to play if I can be on Josh’s team.

It’s still possible to register. However, it says in big black letters, right there on the registration form, “There will be no local teams, and no special requests to be put onto a team.” Only chuxtr, not josh, can assign people to teams.

Wrong person to bribe. You need to bribe me.

Updated. See the first post.
