Awesome Annual Bike Awards

The bike awards are like the Christmas of the cycling community. They get the "family" together at a relatively depressing time of year. It was good fun.

• I didn't like the opening band very much.
• The Clay and Paper Theatre was great. I loved their song. I still have the chorus "Two wheels are better than four" turning over in my mental mp3 player.
• The reverse strip tease was very well done. The enthusiastic performance of the man really made it. A high point of the night: I overheard someone yell "Put it on! . . . Don some wool!"
• Watching the Goldsprints was fun. I was hoping to partake, but I didn't get on stage before I had to go home to bed.
