Genuinely cannot wait. Oh, what should I come as?

Ved, you dressing up buddy?

Yeah I think so.

will flat bars be a no no?

flat bars will be absolutely fine in any of the races

The last three years have been a great success and this is only possible because of the support and time given by an army of volunteers.

Once again we’re looking for volunteers to help set up on Friday 26th, marshall on Sat 27th and break down on Sunday 28th, if you can also help with course works in the run up to the event please conatct us.

Thanks to generous sponsorship from KNOG all volunteers on the day will receive:

An event tee shirt…new design for 2012
A one off “expenses” payment which will be in the region of £15 cash. (theres a set fund so actual amount will depend on final volunteer numbers)

If I help out can I get a guarenteed place at the front of the pack for the group start? ;)

can help if the expense are to ply with booze.

Doctor Cake, nice try but no. I suggest you get a bit fitter increase your bike handling skilz and accumulate better race placings then you will get a grid position. We'd still like your help though please.

lynx, you are welcome to have your £15 in beer tickets, but it'd be easier if you bought beer with the volunteer money.

Can I stick you both on the list anyway?

I have taken on board the fact that people were under the impression that this is a commercial event. It isn't, we have yet to make a penny from Muddy Hell. Consequently this is a reworded BUMP!

This year's Knog Muddy Hell Halloween Cyclo cross will be at Herne Hill on Saturday 27th October in association with VCL and Herne Hill.

Knog Muddy Hell is a community, not for profit event. The last three years have been a great success, this is partly possible because of the support and time given by an the volunteers.

In for helping all day Saturday (can't on Friday or Sunday though).

Thanks for spotting that Jonomarshall...rectified and I've got you down for Saturday.

Put me down for Friday

Thanks Rameye

Yup, Muddy Hell is definitely a volunteer run not for profit event. F-off bridges, lights and the days of digger hire etc that make this night great don't come cheap!

Put your names down please people, expenses should cover beer and the T shirts are always cool. The more the merrier!

See you out there

Doctor Cake, nice try but no. I suggest you get a bit fitter increase your bike handling skilz and accumulate better race placings then you will get a grid position. We'd still like your help though please.

Are there griddings in the Go / novice race?

Aaaaanyway I could help out on the Saturday till 4pm.

bump this..

volunteering is great fun, get involved, its a hoot.. at one of london's best cycling events, i can't wait to see everyone's ugly mugs..

cas, hope your back is holding up after all that grave digging and bridge building..

A

Thanks almac68, it is. I'm more of a desk jockey these days.

D&R scaffolding have started to put the bridge up today, this is where we are up to. http://www.rollapaluza.com/blog/

We could still do with a few more people, we're lacking volunteers to help break down on Sunday.

volunteer@rollapaluza.cc if you can help, there is a bigdaddywayne designed tshirt and some beer money.

That's me looking at my catwalk best.

Famalam! Who's coming tomorrow? Who are we supporting? Who are we heckling? Where's the after party? Where's the after after party?

"..and I'm the dirtiest thing in site, matter of fact bring on the girls and let's have a mud fight!"

I'm in the novice race!

I'm in the novice race!

Well, there is an inherent contradiction. A veritable oxymoron.

It's only the skool that is old, he could quite conceivably be new to it. And don't call him a moron.

He's slow, but he's no moron.

Novice race is heating up. I see OldSkool, Dov & Rudy Melo, shoulder to shoulder barging to the finish line for a 3 way photofinish.

How many times can Dov be a novice?

Dovice

Sorry I cant pitch in to help with volunteering. But will be down to spectate.

Will be there to spectate.

Actually really looking forward to it, though I have dug a nice warm jacket out of the wardrobe especially.
