RU TRAINING RIDER OF THE YEAR





I did this last year and got lots of nominations but kept it pretty low key. This year I will award a bottle of my finest VINO Tinto to the South West Rider voted Rider of the Year.

At the moment I am looking for nominations just leave a comment anonymously if you like with your nomination and why. I will then take the top three and leave it to public vote. Although you will need to register to be able to take part in the public vote.

I will close the nominations at 1159 24 Oct 2008

RUTRAININGTODAY

South west Athlete of the year...

We could have categories and an awards dinner.

Only one man can host an event like that and show us his incredible pool.

Well Bernard? Can we have an awards night at yours????? You can show off your training camp too.

JAMES SMITH said...

Ok decided to close it early.

Lets get voting then

The only pool I have (or had) is the birthing pool that we had 5 weeks ago - believe me you wouldn't want to get in that!!

I can't believe you actually put me on there!! Say by some miracle I win? That'll be hillarious! I only did 2 tris (got 15th and 18th) and 2 TT's where I set personal worsts. I did bugger all training due to illness so couldn't do anymore!

JAMES SMITH said...

Looking good for Adam.

Anonymous said...

HE'S AWESOME!

JAMES SMITH said...

Looks like Rob Willcocks is making a list minute dash for the line. He managed to gain his elite license this year and has had various wins including one with me on the s4 /10 2 up apparently breaking the course record.

But it looks like it is a straight fight between Adam and John Locke.

John Locke has been injured for a large periof of this year but has stil managed to gain his elite license and even had three wins in a row no mean feat in road racing.

So get voting only three days left

JAMES SMITH said...

Looking good for Mr Birnie. I forgot to tell him about his duties as Rider of the Year. OOps!

Anonymous said...

Ha ha brilliant!!!

So that's it then? Have I won?!!!

What are the duties then? Night out at a lap dancing bar?...sub 57 min 25 next year?

...i'm more excited about what i win!!?

JAMES SMITH said...

Yep,

You are the champion!! The king of the swingers the junglel VIP. The master of disaster.

You win one bottle on red wine from me.

But you are obliged to turn up for the Saturday training ride and possibly our midweek run and bring as many people along as possible.

JJ

Ha ha!!

Fantastic! Sorry to those that actually deserve the title!

When is the Saturday ride? (don't say Saturday!)....what date, time and place?

JAMES SMITH said...

You are not brain of the year are you?

Read the headline story

See you Saturday but I wont have the wine with me we will have to organise that.

Bring peopel with you

Anonymous said...

Very funny you cheeky bugger! ;-)

I'll try and get there on Saturday morning - sounds like a good session....and thankfully early enough that it doesn't interfere with the rest of the day.

You're not speller of the year are you? peopel?... ;-)

Most of the riders I know are away on the beast this weekend so it might be a bit quiet.

I won't keep up on a chaingang at the moment - I've done nearly 6 weeks of nothing! We had our 2nd child so sleep is not on the menu! You'll be waiting for me wuite a bit!

Spot the deliberate spelling mistake!!! (quite good after saying you're not speller of the year! Doh!)

I am the kind of guy who loves to taste new stuff. Right now I'm constructing my own solar panels. I'm doing it all by myself without the assistance of my men. I'm utilizing the net as the only path to acheive this. I came across a very brilliant site that explains how to build solar panels and wind generators. The website explains all the steps needed for solar panel construction.

I am not sure bout how precise the data given there iz. If some experts over here who had experience with these things can have a peak and give your feedback in the page it will be great and I'd highly value it, cause I extremely would love to try solar panel construction.

Tnx for reading this. You people rock.
