Saturday I went home and showered after the Pikes Peak Velo SuperCross Race and then went to Bristol Brewing for the post race party. I had posted a couple days ago that I was going to go to the post race party to score one of the Rock Shox Reba forks that was being given away. It turned out they were Psylo SL forks instead of Reba forks. There was lots of other schwag such as $100 spa certificates, teeth whitening, sun glasses, t-shirts, caps, water bottles, and more. Club members had done a really good job of getting things given for the raffle.
I had two numbers. One for volunteering and one for racing. One of my numbers got pulled for a Rudy Project t-shirt and a water bottle. For anything valued at less than $50, your number went back in. They went through a lot more stuff and then gave away the first fork. My other number was pulled! Bummer it wasn’t the Reba but I’m sure I can trade the Psylo or sell it on eBay and get something that would be better for cross country racing. Since my first number got put back in, it got pulled again for another t-shirt and a cap. Bob, club president, said I’d already gotten enough and wouldn’t give it to me. The 2nd fork went to a lady that had crashed hard and had some nasty locking road rash. I think pretty much everybody that was there got something and a lot of people got their number pulled more than once.
