    I’m also trying to find all my previous posts. New format seems to have lost track of my previous activity

    Thank you for sponsoring a single-speed competition! The prize is the joy of riding a ssinglesspeed because the journey IS the destination

    Still feel like a FS newb even though this will be my third year. The colder the better.

    Well I didn’t even make it to the start this year. Fell last night on the way home from my first day on the job at Spokes Vienna. Left wrist broken, cast for 6 weeks, then PT. I have a bike I can ride even with a cast but I won’t get in a lot of miles and it won’t be every day. If FS fills up and there is a waitlist, please drop me so someone else can play.

    I’m sorry to hear your got a jump start on the coveted london bridge prize.
    In that spirit, I’m trying out a full-face helmet this winter jic I’m I inadvertently find myself in the running again this year.

    I was going to start a discussion on this, but decided not to…. I live where most people don’t ride anyway. And I’m never up early enough to do a coffee ride (I also don’t drink coffee). In the past, I’ve tried to participate in at least one of the group rides, but this year didn’t work out since I was on the road a lot.

    I also realize that this game is meant to have fun, and maybe do some things you normally wouldn’t do. Like stop at 10 coffee places in one day and get wired! Or do a ride at 3:00 am! I also enjoy seeing what crazy weather people will ride in. That always amuses me. I’ve also met some nice people, so that’s also a plus.

    I guess the bottom line is that I don’t really care. I’m certainly not going be able to retire off my winnings from Freezing Saddles! I would most likely play along no matter what the rules are. It keeps me amused during winter.

    I was following until the part that mentions you don’t drink coffee and you lost me.

    So for those of us on the cusp of the event horizon that is the nebulous wait-list, should we attend the HH and if so, can we schmooze ourselves into a better position as a replacement.
    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.
