note: no children or dragons were harmed in the creation of this flyer

jamie has already won it. he is the only one who knows how to ride dragons.

Is there any form of opium consumption involved? “riding the green dragon” whilst riding your fixie in the valley like you stole it could result in a fun night :roll:

Its called “chasing the dragon”. Dunno bout riding in the valley during CNY… Def not doing lions this year thank f*** its too much hard work. May join in if not suffering massive retardation seeing theres time to get used to things :slight_smile:

Yeah the valley is packed for the whole week but that just raises the fun factor - I’m definitely keen for some large scale pedestrian ten pin

makes it challenging to find the fastest route that is for sure…
