Okay the date has finally been finally finalised so there's no going back now. All the
logistics have been worked out and there's a healthy prize cache building from:
Skin Grows Back
Gallus Cycles it's caps not a frame unfortunately.
Archie's Grobags
and thanks to Ian at Fixed Mag for arranging a couple of pairs of Vans
The format will be thus:
There are two good areas to skid in the park one is short with a brand new tarmac surface the other is long with a less good surface. Qualifying will take place on the short course, if you run out of space you're in the final. The final goes on the long course, if more than two people run out of space ( 700ft ) then it's a fight to the death with tyre levers. There are separate categories for male and female in the skid comp but as Skidtles is a skill/luck event the girls play with the boys. You've got three weeks to get practicing.
The basic entry fee is £3 on the night for a spoke card and some stickers, the deluxe package which is £8 will get you everything plus a tee shirt that will look like this:
The shirt is only available to people who enter the comp ( you won't be forced to skid if you don't want to but a 1-inch skid would be nice ) and to get one you'll have to register.
Send us an email before 11:59pm on Sunday 21st at godhatestyres@houseofpistard.com stating your name and shirt size. Choose from S,M,L,XL or GirlSML, GirlMED. All shirts are white.
You will pay and pick up the shirt on the night.*
One shirt per person. If you're not there on the night we'll sell it to someone else.
There will be a few extras for people who don't have a chance to register but it will be a limited number.
+++DISCLAIMER+++
WE WILL BE USING THE SKIDDING ANGUS ON A HOP SHIRT IN THE FUTURE BUT IT WILL LOOK QUITE DIFFERENT, COST MORE AND WON'T HAVE THE GOD HATES TYRES LOGO ON IT.
*Don't email saying you want a shirt but can't make it on the night, you get these tees at a dirt cheap price because you've come out to play. If you desperately want an Angus shirt you'll have to wait for the non-God Hates Tyres version which will be less exclusive but more expensive. Work that one out.
