This sounds like a super fun informal summer series and is a perfect complement to the other races going on in the Bay. I've already heard a little bit about what the hazing will be so don't slip up!

A huge thanks and big credit to Sandy and Donny at Kitopia for coming up with this!

Can we toss a hubcap around like a frisbee afterwards? I can just see kiting with one of those hats that holds 2 beers with a straw.

Paparazzi have spotted Donny and Sandy doing the full up-winder race loop today-- twice! The second time on 7-meter Rebels. Yes, it was bloody WINDY.

Don't let the informal thing fool ya', they're trainin'! (Dan and John too.)

No, I'm sorry. Port right-of-way at those particular tules, as you know Charles. And keep it clock-wise please, for greater safety.
