Single Speed WC in Dirt Rag - Were you there?
« on: January 01, 2008, 03:50:25 am »
Dirt Rag just published an article - with riotous pictures - of the the SS World Championships in Aviemore, Scotland. (Apparently SS is pronounced "Nae Gears" in Scottish...)

Don't we have a previous champion around here somewhere, Callum or Colin?

Sadly, I didn't spot any Proflexes in the pix, but as a Proflex Single Speeder, I truly hope we were represented.

Either the author, Jacquie Phelan, was bombed when she wrote the article, or she's a terrible writer. It's nearly unreadable. Nevertheless, she captured the spirit of the event. Apparently, there's a lot of spirits consumed during the ride.

Looked like a lot of fun.
