Sleepless in the saddle

Emsz – I promise that I’m not really a dangerous internet predator.

I’ll sort out an e-mail to all those that claim interest later today 🙂

Im doing it, doing solo, very much looking forward to it 🙂

I’ve got ickle tires, a portable jet wash and a pit crew of 2 at the ready!

Bring it!

Bring it!

Thats the spirit.
😉

I’ve messaged Sarah via Facebook and given her the link to this thread.

Interested to ride with iDave and Molgrips.

All I need to do now is rope Jamie into this, somehow.

What bike for SiTS ?

I’m in for some covert convent action TSY

Sweet. Sounds like I can at least get a team of 4 in then.

Molly
Tricky
Solo
iDave
me (errm that’s 5) I’ll just hang around looking good and drinking.

Darcy the masseur
Junky the tool monkey.

Jamie doesn’t have a mountain bike anymore 🙁

What’s the job description for pit bitches then? That picture looks securely unsavoury?

TSY.

Ok, looks like I’m in.

*what have I done*

Jamie can be Spanner Man.

Jamie can be the[/b] Spanner Man

🙂

*starts growing moustache*

(belly is sorted)

Jamie can be dietitian, and 2nd in command of standing around looking good.

Emma… essentially it involves standing around looking good. The less clothing you can get away with the better. You also get to shout at really tired people and be prepared to have them shout back at you…

Agree that pairs is hard! Yo do never really see your team mate so a good pit crew is essential really.

Did it last year as a pair and came 5th (2mins of 4th 😆 ) However if it’s your first i’d do it as a team.

I agree, but we’re not seeing anything from the man himself.

*starts growing moustache*

Please no. Think of the drag….

We need a woman.. come on ladies.

Hmmmm, if there is enough you could do two stw teams and I’ll throw my OH in and pit bitch myself, I have a bikini and some daisy dukes and I’m always happy to yell at sampy looking worn out wimps 🙂

They will be convent teams.

I might do it as a solo and use the teams as pace makers? Or, when I catch up on all my lost sleep I’ll realise that’s a silly idea.

We need a woman.. come on ladies.

DD in a moustache doesn’t qualify then ?.

Hmm.. two teams would require DGOAB at the very least. Someone go and pick her up from North.

Someone go and pick her up from North

Doable.

Do pit bitches get standard issue cow bells, I fear I couldn’t do it without a cow bell

We’ll look after you em.

I am a woman and so is my wife

We could get Mustard to join us and bring her down!

Full of good ideas me.

If you can pose as a woman successfully all weekend then I’ll.. umm.. be impressed 🙂

We’ll need wax, hairpieces, make-up, a bike with flowers on it, shespoke clothing…

Err. hang on. ” Convent “.

Whats this all about.

AND

WHAT BIKE FOR SiTS, HT, FS, what ?.

I want to do this, but it would just be me, solo with no support crew etc.

Which is putting me off, as it’ll be my first solo. Esp as I usually end up breaking myself quite badly on such events.

Does anyone remember the guy who broke his ankle in D2D a few years ago *points thumbs at himself*, yup.

If the convent gets enough hangers on I’m sure someone will help you out simon 🙂

SimonB512.

Make TSY’s Solo a pair.

Promote Jamie to Pit Lord

Is anyone still looking for a grrl to join their team ?
I’m trying to get a vegan triathletess to have a go.

MTG.

No Idea. TSY was meant to e-mail the Team

But I’ve not received anything yet.

Not a good sign.

Or perhaps I’ve been binned before I’ve even turned a pedal.

😉

Girls always welcome, it means fewer laps for everyone 🙂

Can she actually ride a bike though? I mean.. triathletes… you know…

I’m on it Solo… you’ve not been binned. My evening became very surreal last night as I was settling into sort out organisation… I’ll try and do something in a bit.

MTG – if you can get a girl… or two I reckon we might be able to get numbers for two mixed teams. 🙂

Do you need a Motivational Speaker? I can do motivation. All our Team Bullheart riders suddenly rode a lot faster when they saw me trackside. 🙂

What are the opposition?

Scum!

And what are we going to do to them?

Grind them into the dirt like the dogs that they are!

Supportive team hugs afterwards though. Very important.

We can’t tempt you can we Elf?

My evening consited of working until 9pm, I started at 6am.

Then driving home to arrive at about midnight.

I’ll try to check mail during the day.

Right, back to the decorating.
🙁

join us elf, we’re a broad church

I’m not sure I want to be in a team with a man who anoints his bottom with such an ‘orrible concoction… 😐

fear not, i only anoint my own bottom, unless you pay a fee

Bit of a delay in replying, I missed this at the time. 😳

I think you’ll be pushing it trying to do two solos that close together.

Yes, the timing is not ideal. I did 12 at Erlestoke, 12 at Bristol the following weekend, then 24 at MM two weeks after that. I’m still not recovered now.

I’ve not had a reply from SassySarah or IronGirl (the vegan triathlete) yet.
