Sorry all, I dropped the ball on this one. Does anyone have any connections / ideas for prizes for the TTT. We dont have to give anything out but I think it would be cool to have something to show how much cooler we are compared to all the other clubs out there.

Galen has very kindly agreed to donate a small painting (which I will win) but maybe there is other stuff we can give away either for placing well (open or Tripleshot) or as draw prizes.

Bags of Coffee maybe??

Thoughts?

Prize's are good :P Can't say what (don't know yet) but will be able to get a few things put together, will have a better idea tomorrow, any ideas besides beer. (maybe a massage by Dave?)

How about roadside medical services for future crashes for the "lucky winner!!!" There is always at least one pesky Dr. around.....

Can help with armloads of books and DVDs for FREE! Will help with setting the winners up with library cards..
Should we align ourselves with a bike shop sponsor for next year?
Kudos to Dave S for arranging for some swag and a free massage (slightly used in Bejing)!

What's a 'slightly used massage'?

Is that like the Swedish prime minister repeating himself?

And what was he doing in Beijing?

Holy non sequiturs, Lister. Gotta stop eating when I read your posts. Coffee and oatmeal are hard to clean off of flat screens..
Dave had written:
I have been offered to loan out, a couple of time trial helmets and a set of Dura ace carbon race wheels with tubulars ( slightly used at Beijing Olympics) c/w 10 speed Dura ace cassette. Any interest?
in his http://tripleshotcyling.freeforums.org/ ... .html#2055 post. As well, he's arranged a massage as a prize.
Got a kick out of the truly Canadian modesty around the fact that the wheels were coming from no less than Simon Whitfield. Should have put the parentheses after swag.. just that it looked better after massage..

Issues about Star Wars, horses, Napoleon, or, like too many Tripleshotters, avatars??

By the way, offer still stands to take a break from frisbee / beach / massage to run some TTT errands today..

Is this some sort of Triathlon? Do I need to run & swim?
