I also awarded Bicycle Icicles to the 5 participants who cycled when the temperature was below 10 degrees F
They are:
- too slow crowe – 8.9 degrees
- Mitch Temoche – 8.5 degrees
- Scott Binde – 6.9 degrees
- Kris Stein – 0.2 degrees
- Joshua Hanson – minus 4 degrees
On the opposite side of this, I announced the FS24 Hall of Shame: the 14 riders who never once cycled when it was below actual freezing, 32 degrees F. From least shameful to most:
- Joan Bickelhaupt
- Denitsa Apostolova
- Kurt Becker
- Nat Chait
- Andrew Moore
- John Tonetti
- Wade Sheppard
- – m –
- Sylvester
- Lana Duran
- Junior Alvarado
- Colleen Geasey
- Lucy Thomas
and a certificate to the one participant who never rode below 40 degrees:
Anyone who would like their certificate or their bicycle icicle, please let me know.
I awarded some pointless prizes at the final happy hour, including these:
Team Meh-Diocrity awards
And the individual Meh-Diocrity Awards
1/16 – toxin
Toxins in our food and environment are likely contributors to the increasing number of people who get colorectal cancer. These flags were placed on the mall to increase awareness
With just a few days to go in this year’s Freezing Saddles, one wonders, “I wonder who is leading for the Meh-Diocrity Pointless Prize?”
Well, your wondering is over. Here are the current leaders:
For the team prize, the two teams in the meh-dle are Team Shiba and Team 24-Dead Last. Not dead last at all, I will point out: pretty much just meh
And leading the individual Meh standings, believe it or not, April DeRome is still there. She was there on the middle day of FS, and she still is, joined by another meh-diocre rider, Mitch Temoche. But there’s still plenty of time for others to slack a bit or step up their slightly-less-than-average effort and take the Meh-dal!
(I will point out, in all seriousness, these median riders have ridden almost 900 miles since January 1. That is, in fact, quite an accomplishment. Pretty much all FS participants are actually badasses, not meh-asses.)
Found this glove on the Dzhoy Memorial ride. Brought it home, washed it and am keeping an eye out for a compatible partner.
Evidently the jerseys and other gear have been showing up in mailboxes all over. Komorebi modeled this at last Friday’s coffee club
Found this glove on the Dzhoy ride. It’s a nice rightie glove, so I will keep an eye out for a lefty
