Just found these details about the Rollapaluza League and thought it would be awesome to enter a 'team**' at one of the events
For those of you who are unfamiliar with Rollapaluza, basically two bikes are rigged up side by side on rollers. They are connected to a bloody big clock timer with two hands, and on the whistle you pedal as fast as you can and 'spin' the clock 500m. Straight knockout based on times.
Its great fun and the next event is at 'Imbibe' (where I had my birthday drinks) on Blackfriars Road on January 14th
So who fancies it??? (Ladies, thats Sol and Tanya in case you didn't know , I reckon you to could give the ladies a serious run for their money!)
**A team can be any number of people who enter on the night, only the top three times count toward team scores |

Just 500m? What do you mean just? That's miles*
*Well obviously not actual miles but it'll feel like it - it's all flat out.

I take it that is a rhetorical question?  |
