Ladies Tea Cup

Tomorrow is the 2nd annual ladies alley cat; If you're in Vancity and a lady I highly encourage you to attend. Last year's Schoolgirl Pussy Cat was my first race and I had a blast despite having a heavy bike, not knowing anyone or the city very well. I met a lot of great gals that day, many of which I've come to know as my friends. Haley, last year's winner, is organizing it and her reputation for fun has got me very excited for this race.

I actually met Kimmy at the Union/Main stop light on my way down to the gazebo. We looked at eachother, I asked if she was heading to race and upon learning that we were both noobs and wanted to be DFL, we decided to race together. After chugging beers at the union/quebec skate park, doing our best epileptic impressions of 'dance, dance, revolution', and racing to and from downtown and east van for various other checkpoints we finally rolled into the finish a long, long time after everyone else.

Although I'm not competative I was kinda looking forward to seeing how much faster I'd be this year with a better bike and well-earned bike legs. However, the bum rotator cuff sidelined my ass for most of the summer leaving me still gimpy and terribly out of shape.


Me thinks it might be a repeat performance.
Go Team DFL.
