Big Ringers Rock the 24hrs of Hot August Nights!

News Flash!!

All three Big Ring Racing teams made it to the podium at the 24 hrs of Hot August Nights:

A determined Vegan Vagabond (Tanya Hanham) grinded her way to first place (17 laps) in the women solo category. Tanya also tied the BRR record for number of laps for a soloist set by Golonghardman.

Tag team - Tobin Decou (Coco) and Rick Clancy (Golonghardman) took first (24 laps) in Men's Tag Team category. This was a real gutsy performance on the part of the duo - Tobin suffered a broken frame (down tube) and had to run back to camp.

Big Ring Mixed claimed 2nd place (25 laps) finish in a very closely contested category - 2nd, 3rd and 4th were running neck and neck for the majority of the race. This also a BRR record for number of laps by a mixed team. Team was comprised of Zamboni, Papa G, Kark, Kari (T-bone) and guest rider Leslie Green (Chain Reaction Cycles).
