Cycle city $1 time trial

Hey guys
Myself and the guys who work at cycle city Lyneham were looking for something fun to do during our lunch breaks at the store, so we came up with a little race, we decided that a time trial would be the best idea, and one that could be done one at a time, we drew up a course and a map and then we set some times around the course (its a gut buster :evil:).

We have decided that we will run each course for 1 month and anyone can come and have a go (as long as you are on a fixie). It only cost $1 for a recorded timed lap which gets put on the leaders board. You can come in to the store and look at the map of the course and ride it without paying but to get a timed lap it is $1. The person with the fastest lap at the end of the month collects the pot :lol:.

The course will vary in length and difficult , everything from a short 3km sprint to and epic 10km loop, changing every month.

Rule are easy you must be riding a fixie (helmets are advised) and anything goes except shortcuts, oh and no excuses (yes there are cars and traffic lights on these courses :-o).

If you are up for some fun drop by the store and ask about the time trial and give it a go.

Hope to see you in the store
Nick
