    Right, it's been far too long since we had a race about the place, almost a year infact. So I propose a simple good old fashioned A-B-C alIeycat:

    Start point (A) will be the gates of Queen's Park on Victoria Road
    Points B and C will be in other parks in the city and revealed just before the race.
    The overall route is about 6-7miles so should be a fast one.

    Who is up for it? Any problems with the date?

    If you've not got a fixed or single-speed, I doubt riding gears will preclude you from the race.

    minus the weight of the can. and also a tactical piss could be taken... :)

    aye basically the beer thing is just for the end while we wait on the slow cunts before decanting to the pub. Last time I bought a case of beer but there's no entry fee this time so it's bring your own tin...
