Re:2009 Sorta Underground Points Series - 2009/11/06 20:29 If you are a crazy fun stuff kind of person then this is for you. The course tomorrow won't have any mud though. No two (five) rides will be the same as the location changes each date. Generally, it'll be a mix of grass, dirt and pavement with a couple of barriers to run/hop over. In the past there has been a limbo bar, sand pits, playground equipment and other various entertaining (perspective is everything) segments. These rides are meant to be low key as in leave the 'tude at home and ride with a smile. The chosen locations are not reserved or officially sanctioned. I ask everyone thinking of doing these to give others (joggers, dog walkers, etc) plenty of space and courtesy. Finally, ride your own pace or someone else's but above all else have fun.
Everyone is welcome, see ya'll tomorrow.

Re:2009 Sorta Underground Points Series - 2009/11/13 16:57 #1 is done and there was a record turn-out for a series opener. Thanks to everyone for making it a fun ride.
#2 is tomorrow and one forecast indicates no rain and another says a slight chance of sprinkles for the AM.
Sounds good enough for me so hope to see you there.

Here are the finishing places from #1. Since it is cross season I thought I would go with the theme and use cross... word style clues when listing participants. Yep, some are pretty obscure, okay, they might all be obscure. Here goes...

Gals-
1. Infectious Vaccine
2. Lower in Croatian
3. Miss Castaway

Guys-
1. J Oates
2. Scar Collector (by the way, 3 new ones this week, Yee-Haw!)
3. New Papa
4. Man with two 1st names
5. Grand Slam diner
6. Addidas Unglued
7. D Hall
8. Arc Weld
9. Mother Tongue Scholar
10. Fastest Mullet
11. Hawaiian Crooner
12. Banter on a bike
13. General Jeans
14. Never misses one
15. Jeep on a niner

If I got your finishing places wrong (assuming you can figure out your cross name) let me know. Cheers

Re:2009 Sorta Underground Points Series - 2009/11/20 13:00 DotF, you're guesses are pretty close. Your only mistake is 15 down.
Here are the, probably, incorrect (I'm not sure what place some riders finished or if all finished) results from #2:

Gals (2):
1. Lower in Croatian
2. Miss Castaway

Guys (18):
1. New Papa
2. J. Oates
3. Hate Poor
4. Scar Collector
5. Grand Slam
6. Adidas Unglued
7. Arc Weld
8. Mother Tongue Scholar
9. Hulk
10. Short Lived Mullet (formerly known as Fastest Mullet)
11. Fastest Hands Down
12. Man With Two 1st Names
13. Belgian Waffle
14. Bellefonte Biker
15. Slim Jim
16. Never Misses One
17. Lincoln
18. Two Tone Ti

To the best of my knowledge and math these are the series points totals (finishing places added together) so far:
Gals:
1. Lower in Croatian-3 pts
2. Miss Castaway-5 pts

Guys:
1. J. Oates-3 pts
2. New Papa-4 pts
3. Scar Collector-6 pts
4. Grand Slam-10 pts
5. Adidas Unglues-13 pts
6. Arc Weld-15 pts
7. Man With 2 1st Names-16 pts
8. Mother Tongue Scholar-17 pts
9. Short Lived Mullet-20 pts
10. Never Misses One-30 pts

#3 is tomorrow and the weather forecast looks good. No PSU home tomorrow so it might be time for a campus course.
