Spillage in the Village

Roller Racing at 169 Bar L.E.S.

It was la cupcake that finshed off the hungry cyclist. The hotness brought a ringer: herself on a 48x13. The winners got sleeveless champion system jerseys. No holding so plenty of spillage; some super-close come-from-behind upsets. Half the crowd shoulda been racing.

The peloton was a brave dozen. Ten men and two women: a few roller all-stars, a few steel-nerve newbies. Kegs of St. Pauli contributed to slow times. Kudos to clean losers on road bikes: the faster you spun your 53x15, the more you lost to dope track bikes. Only 51x14 in the mens final.

With drumming on the ceiling, the betting was lively with $$ carrots in favorites' faces. What jolly good cheer. "Best Ever Roller Party." Thanks to Dan, Andy, Alex & Marco at nyvelocity, to bike-friendly Charles at 169 Bar, to jersey sponsors Champion System, and to Alan Atwood for making these times official.--Dave Perry
