				| Date: July 23, 2011 
 What: bikes, racing, P-ball, watermelon, BLT's, sprinklers, records, croquet, beer, etc...
 
 Prizes: You want them.

 Bring your prowess and racing legs, and be prepared to ride your bike like it wants to be ridden--fast and hard. Prizes awarded to 1st, 2nd, and DFL, but no one will go home empty-handed! An afterparty follows the last checkpoint. Don't miss out!

				| There will be posters soon! But, like Logan says, all you have to do is just show up, ride your bike, and have a good time. |  |

 Al's Bar. Train your gut to handle multiple canned beers chased with shots of bourbon, and you'll be fine.

				| Very good advice, Brian. 
 Also, since you're new to town, you might want to bring a map. The alleycat is "centered" around downtown (I guess you can say) with several checkpoints requiring you to dismount and do something awesome.

				| Since Katie Jo talked of sandbagging me (literally) I will be out of town this weekend on my way to Warsaw for the Cycling Messenger World Championships.  Yes, I know I'm not a messenger, and thus registered as a "Fakenger."  You all have fun. |  |
