Yay playing nice it seems!

What's a street keirin though, just a sprint?

a mad dash through traffic peppered with some near death moments

if you are doing it right / planning on winning

So an alleycat without checkpoints?

Google japan street keirin dude.

You might end up totalling another frame if you enter.

I thought it was around a square, non?

oh, there are two events, my bad .... but only one set of prizes ?

RE: ALLEYCAT

the alley cat is a point to point race between the check points as advertised. in contrast to many alley cats, we advertise the check points so that:

a) it is inclusive. non-couriers can research and practice the route beforehand (last race a non-courier came 3rd)

b) it is inclusive. the organisers can dash for cash without accusations of already knowing the checkpoints, as everyone does.

**RE: STREET KEIRIN

**street keirin is keirin on the street, developed for gambling purposes.

street keirin is comprised of 2 laps behind a non-motor based pacer (i.e. a courier on a cargo bike) followed by 4 laps of racing.

there are no mandatory drug tests.

**RE: PRIZES

**the prizes for the alley cat are as advertised.

plus, any entrant of the alley cat will receive 2 cans of beer upon completion of the race.

the prizes for the street keirin are a trophy, respect, and whatever else is left.

if you are confused you should come to full city leather lane ec1 at 7.30pm friday october 18th 2013 and i will explain it to you.

Nice one High Plains, hope this goes off, sounds like the last one was good, keep it grass roots.
