2010 Bike Pentathlon - 26th of September

The 2nd Bike Pentathlon is set for Sunday the 26th of September.

Last years was a great afternoon on fun on bikes with a great turn out.

This year hopes to continue with the fun and add some new too that was had last October. If you missed out last years event, the basic idea is - Five events, points given to top riders, highest points at the end of the day wins. Pretty simple.

Events are going to be the same as last year, with one event being changed.

The events are - Elimination Laps, Longest Skid, Footdown, Time Trial Sprints, and replacing the “Expression Session” from last year will be rounds of “Space Invaders”

Space Invaders is played with polo mallets and the aim of the game is to shoot a polo ball through the wheel base of other riders to eliminate them from the round.

More details to come…

sounds cool …i will give it a shot

This morning I received a nice little package from Knog with some bits and pieces in it. Really glad to have them on broad again.

BO Gear have also come to the party again and I’ll be working with Dave for something special to give away.

to be continued…

2 months to the day.

hey mate this sounds awesome… anything i can help with don’t hesitate to ask… :wink:

I love you Brisbane guys but you play Space Invaders wrong. It was invented in Sydney. The aim of the game is to shoot a ball with a polo mallet into the rim of someone else’s bike. When your rim gets hit, you are out. The game you guys have been playing is called Kenball.

I’m pretty sure Ken doesn’t have balls.

Just a reminder that this is on this Sunday coming, the 26th.

Rego starts at 11.30.

what time do you think it will finish up?

i think last year finished at about 3.30-4. ths year should run a little quicker with one of the events being replaced.

SWAG!!!

There is a shit load to give away this year. Thanks heaps to the sponsors.
