Re:
Stupid idea from my ever fertile mind.
I was talking with a coleague who is into his road cycling and we got talking about the various tours what with the Vuelta on at the moment. We got around to the tour of Britain once known as the Milk Race as sponsored by the now defunct Milk Marketing Board. You might have an inkling where I'm going with this by now.
Next year why not have a series of 4 MacRetro roadcycling meets in 4 locations around MacRetroland in May, June,July and August sponsored by the .......Mince Marketing Board. This organisation we know is alive and well in MacRetroland. We could call it the 'Mince Race'.
We could run a points system based on how many events you got to, best retrobike etc and then anounce a winner. Contest open to all from Retrobike.
Somebody take responsibility for a run in their neighbourhood, a loop of some kind on roads with a distance say around the 50 mile mark. I have a loop of pretty near that with two pub/cafe stops and lots of nice scenery. No need to actually ride a retrobike or for that matter a roadbike, just something you think could make the distance. Traditional carpark dash at the end.
Like or hate the idea ??????
