more news! there will be another $100 up for grabs for the minute challenge. brought to you by the future fund! this prize will be taken home by the person who rides the furthest on the real rollers in one minute… no handicap, nothing. i guess if you break the mile mark you could take home both prizes… ---

is there a gear limit for the 1 mile dash? 93km/h is gonna be a bit hard if there is. ---

gearing for the chooka challenge must be less than 100 gear inches. far from impossible on the rollers. chooka reckons there have been at least 4 other people who have done it - since the 70s! ---

uh-oh. i was talking to the malaysian track team last night (including one of the fastest women in the world, Fatehah Mustapa). they’re all pretty stoked on the idea, and are likely to come along. i say likely because their coach gave the thumbs up - a rare occurance. i’ll believe it when i see it, but you all better hope that the handicapper is kind to you. buy him brownies… ---
