Globe Roller Racing June 18th at UBC Pit Pub

Hey kids,

i have a very special sprint coming up on the 18th of this month at UBC that i can guarantee you will be worth your time.

for the last bit a few of my friends, The TREK coalition and i have been talking to specialized about putting on some big stuff, and the 18th at the UBC Pit is our first little foray into this.

Specialized is putting up some great stuff, EMT survival kits, Tactic helmets, BG Equinox gloves, wool socks, Jerseys, all kinds of stuff that ther north west cyclist needs, and the list goes on.

Not only that, but Zip Car is also getting involved and the grand prize will be a weekend with a convertible Mini cooper, in addition to several subscriptions to the service. With summer coming up this has to be worth coming out for right?

we also have several messenger bags that will be raffled off made out of reclaimed banners. each one is one of a kind and can not be obtained anywhere else.

Also 1/3rd of every ticket goes to the UBC TREK coalition, working hard to find transportation alternatives for all the kids out there.

the bottom line is if we really blow this thing out of the water there could be big big things down the road.

SO SPREAD THE WORD!

June 18th 7PM at the UBC Pit Pub 6138 student union Blvd. $5 at the door. Cash prizes as well as sweet swag.

NEXT WEEK!

Hey kids, just a quick reminder that this thing is happening next week!

Wednesday December 16th at 8:00pm at The Astoria Hotel. $5 at the door.

I am definitely limiting registration to the main race so show up at 8. This will hopefully allow those who want to be fast to be fast, and those who want to throw down against their friends to do that and not have to stay until 2am to do it.

its either going to be 16 or 20 racers for the main event. If you have an opinion shout it out. i would love feed back.

See you this Wednesday!

Also since i have a little more time on my hands I'm getting in touch with Phil Wood, Velocity, Red Bull, Eighth Inch, and anyone else who might have an advertising budget for this kind of stuff. I will have sweet non cash prizes or die trying.
