    There should be some door prizes as well.

    I have something for a raffle should we have one.

    Or just have a set of trivia Q's at the award ceremony for the participants to win some prizes.

    Motivation is the key here.

    Tree, are you from KS originally?

    No - but both of my parents are. My dad was a Marine out at Pendelton in the 60's, he fell in love with CA while here so he went back to KS, married my mom and moved her out here. All us kids were born here. Growing up, I WAS NOT ALLOWED to cheer for or even watch a local team unless they were playing KU.... I became a fan through attrition.

    Honor system? I agree with an official weigh-in not to keep people honest but to build a fraternity of like minded mtb peeps.

    :beer:<-----part of every diet :drunk:

    In 2008 we did a kickoff RIDE to build camaraderie. And besides, everyone should weigh themselves on their own bathroom scale, in whatever state of dress/undress they choose, to establish a base weight that will allow them to better track their progress at home.

    This last 3/4 of a year has been beyond brutal on me... Very little riding plus monster stress... I packed on about 30lbs in 10 months.... I need to shed the weight and riding/ balanced diet is the best way I know how.. count me in.

    Ouch! They do when you fill them with sand, I kept putting holes in her, so I had to try something else.

    I'm sure she'll chime in here soon, She's already been in contact with a girl I went out with on this site. :lol:

    Are you part of this weight loss challenge or what?

    Jeffe don't lie you know the girls on this site wouldn't go out with you.;) Dude your NOT suppose to put sand in the blow up doll. A blow up doll is different than a voodo doll (no hole punching).

    Next time read the instructions

    Com'on join us we all must get in shape.

    Sooo - I can wear a parka and hiking boots for the initial weigh in - and naked for the finish...it is freakin cold now and will be hot then, so...

    It's the 'honor system' and I can blame it on the weather? :?:

    I don't have a paypal account but earlier this week I was fortunate enough to ride with Jeff Kerkove and Sonya Looney of Team Ergon. They gave me some Ergon Gx-1 grips for peddling hard, i'd be glad to pay it forward to the winner for doing the same :)
