Prize Update for the Granville Cycling Challenge

5/26/2011

I went shopping at Kohls, Target, WalMart, K-Mart and Toys-R-Us and found the perfect prizes. Here, to provide inspiration, I have positioned the Tiger next to an image of Armstrong. The Tiger will be given to the first person who arrives back in the parking lot at the finish. This is not a race so don't do anything stupid out on the road just to get this prize.

For the person arriving last at the parking lot, you get this cute turkey. If you have previously won this prize (Flyin Tuna) you are not eligible to win a 2nd. After Tuna won the last place prize (a Rhino) from the last GCC, she sent me images of it being squeezed in a vise and cutting off its limbs. I do not abide cruelty to stuffed animals.

mark - who is the official that sanctions the places? or are we on the honor system? :} i'm fearful cheating might ensue on the road with short cutting and other trickery that could affect the results...!!!

Kendaj, yes, that will be a real concern, considering some of the characters that populate our rides. The winner and last place finisher have to pass the "look" test. For example, last place finisher must be paunchy, flabby and slow, as was the case with the current title holder. The fastest winner must have a history of being an elite climber which unfortunately, eliminates anyone wearing the Kenda jersey.

Why can't I win again? Doesn't seem fair...I've kept up the requirements?
