O.G. alleycross

Thyneighborspain..... er bike has changed the name, but the game is the same. PAIN. Again the dirt derby has been canceled yet again, so you know what that means. O.G AlleyCross



Here are the details from the man of pain himself,


Decided to switch up the name this time around to celebrate the gangsters of cross who have not been letting the cyclocross weather get in the way of their cyclocross racing.

More info to come…


There you have it, more deets to come, but be ready for it.

Halloween update and final flyer

Okay kids,

Saturday will be here before you know it. Gonna lay some details on ya.

The race will start at Austin Bikes. The race will start promptly at 6:66 (7:06) on Saturday 31st (Halloween). The entry fee is $6.66, but it is a suggested donation of $10. All the proceeds from the race is going to YBP. I will give you a manifest when you register. I suggest getting there early so you can plan a route. You won't need a bag or lock, but you will need something to take digital photos with. Go here, if you don't have a digital camera or camera phone.

The race will end at LoveJoy's. This is a 21 and up establishment. So the prize ceremony will take place in the alleyway, in case if there are a few of you that race that are under 21. Otherwise we can do it inside if no young-ins are racing. The food from Wahoo's will also be at Love Joy's.

The categories are going to be,

1st overall
1st ladies
1st fixed
1st out of towner
best costume


There are some great prizes to be had, so bring your race face. If you have any questions, email me at les_bennett at me dot com.

Halloween Alleycat

Hey kids, it is getting closer to that time. The race is going to be a blast. It will start at Austin Bikes and end somewhere that will be disclosed at the start of the race. The race will start at promptly 7:06. The entry fee is $6.66, but it is a suggested donation of $10, all proceeds go to YBP.

Bring you fast bike and a camera or a cell phone camera. If you don't have one, ask to borrow one from someone (I have an old cell phone camera someone can borrow) hell you can go here and get one for super cheap!!!! There will be some Wahoo's for everyone who races (yes there will be veggie taco's as well) and beer too.



I unfortunately had some sponsors drop from the race, but I added some in their place. There will be plenty of prizes to go around, including best costume. So come dressed up in something that will be comfortable to race in.

Remember, this race benefits Yellow Bike Project. They finally have broken ground. Let's help them secure some more funds to get our local bike co-op up and running again.









The race shouldn't last to long, so you will still have time to drink some beers and get cleaned up if you're going to any halloween parties later that evening. Even though we're close now, I will post something else a little bit later with finalized sponsors. You should start seeing some flyers and posters around town soon.

"Last race we had some loot prizes and since loot is cool lets try that again. The race will be 5 bucks but if you have some random stuff lying around that you want to throw in for the winner’s loot it’ll be free to race."





Looks like D and cyclebum have been scoping some spots out too. Looks like it is going to be a blast!!!!
