Fancy Dress event New Year’s Day 2009.

The draw has taken place today in the McCall household for the starting order for the fancy dress event for the 1 lap event of the Hartshead circuit.

Set of balls two and machine Excaliber were used, with drawmaster Alfie the dog in attendance from lottery HQ to ensure all names on the paper dropped on the floor were swiftly eaten. Holly and Francesca McCall were there to confuse matters further to an almost manic level. Order was retained by the level headed control by Mrs Anne “WHAT? I’m the time keeper? You didn’t tell me about that you *$*!$” McCall (thank goodness one of us is almost sane!!!)

The order is as follows.

1st rider off at around 1201!!!! (But I suppose we can be flexible on this, just whenever we are all somewhere near ready and had the embarrasing photos taken for posterity.)

1 El Presdientee himself- Phil Rounding

2 Tandem king and queen, Andy and Linda Callaghan.

3 The only Lady rider insane enough (and not pregnant)enough not to find an excuse, Angela

4 Rob Bradby chasing his squeeze down for the 4.5 miles.

5 Andy Colter tight up behind his good mate Brad!!

6 Craig “the big fairy”(and that’s not even his fancy dress) Johnson

7 John Callaghan the drunken good for nothing tax dodging student.

8 Alastair “I’m not saying anything against him as he will sue my ass off as soon as I even THINK of anything”Wareham

9 Steve Mccall-I’m gonna get you by the 2nd corner, you big lumbering lawyer!!

10 Alex (the Mavis of the fancy dress world”I don’t really know”) Millman.

Course details are Start at the church and keep turning left at every junction!!!!! If you get lost that’s yer own fault and you take the consequences of aimlessly pedalling around Windybank estate dressed as some gimp servant thing :-) Perish the thought!!

Seriously for anyone that dosen’t know (Alastair “GPS” Wareham and Andy “routemaster” Callaghan) here is the link for the route.
