By now I’m sure everyone knows that the Annual Contender Roller Race is getting close. It’s always a good time and there’s usually a fun twist thrown in there too. To give you a taste here’s a few pictures of the Roller Race the every first year we did it.
Eddie and Graham went head to head
For some reason my high shorts never caught on
I came across this on the web. King James apparently thought there would be too much traffic to the game so what does he do? He rides his bike of course. But Jer-majesty doesn’t ride just any ordinary bike. Not when you’re 6’8, you need a custom set up from Cannondale. Maybe I can convince him to do the roller race. Hit me up on Twitter Lebron!
I think I just might need to grow a sweet beard like that
One tall bike
What's this guy's saddle height I wonder
Well, Sven might not have had the best day at world’s this year but it wasn’t as bad as Helen Wyman’s day in the women’s race.
This…….
lead to this……
I bet this was made in Boulder….
The other day I was joking around with a friend about everyone carrying on and on about their “training” programs…. He said that he was on a new training program called “the perpetual taper”… Hilarious…
Here’s a cool video that’s making the rounds on the inter-web. It’s one for all you artistic types out there.
I bet they are hoping that the UCI implements a hair-follicle only testing policy.
It’s coming around to Roller Race time. It’s an annual fun, challenging, sweat inducing, side splitting romp. There are many themes I’m considering but my main drive is to DE-throne Reed. He’s the three time champ and he must be destroyed. He’s the Darth Vader of the roller race inflicting his imperial ways upon the good guys like myself. Do you have what it takes? The great part of the Roller Race is everyone can get their best shot in and have some fun. Be on the look out for many details. Of course there’s always a twist to the Roller Race so be ready for anything.
Remember the good times.
Ok so maybe this never happened last year but if Paul Bunion shows up to roller race on a couple of tree trunks I’d give him a shot. You Surly owners should seriously consider this.
Next week, we are taking it to a new level in the training camp…..
Is it possible? Have the hipsters infiltrated Contender’s Reed and Eddie? Have their skinny jeans cut off all circulation to the brain? Wrong again. Reed and Eddie are actually an award winning duo that pack theaters all over the country. Who sees these shows? Well mostly inmates and degenerates for now but there’s been a real ground swell recently and tickets are going quick.
The fourth and fifth Beatles also known as the Reed and Eddie experience are currently on tour with their two man show. They bring a real showmanship to the stage. Don’t be fooled by the fluffy locks though, the word on the street is that there’s an extreme pyrotechnic display from those very mop tops in the encore and maybe a tiger. Don’t believe me? Just read some of the reviews.
“I don’t think this legally qualifies as theater” -Matt Simmons -Chicago Sun Times
“Half way through the show Eddie stopped to answer his cell phone” -Carrie Walsh -St. Louis Post
“It was opening night and Reed was already using an under study” -Robert Clifton -Washington Star
“It felt like I was watching an old man fall out of a wheelchair” -Brad Harris -Miami Globe
Resident God Father of Cyclo-cross Lou Rollins claimed the National Championship recently in Madison Wisconsin. This is Lou’s second national title. Lou is quite the conqueror when it comes to the dirt.
Also securing the National title in her category was Kris Walker. She pretty much ran away with many of the Utah races and she brought the goods to the big time. Congratulations to you both and thanks for representing Contender bicycles at Nationals.
Your National Champs Lou Rollins and Kris Walker
Take a walk on the wild side with Lou, Reed
You’re my boy Lou!
