I will once again sponsor the Clever Caption Pointless Prize.

It will work similarly to previous years: http://bikearlingtonforum.com/showth...021-photo-no-1

Keep your eye out for separate threads containing photos that are begging for a clever caption.

Question: Are you disqualified from winning a prize if you sponsor it??
Motive: I so, so, soooo want to do the tandem contest again, but I also want to win it again! (Since its the only prize I have ANY chance of winning).
Cautionary tale: If there's no restrictions, I'd like to sponsor a #beingGA contest, cause I could win that one, too.

Note, I believe it's really hard to ride a bicycle while carrying a full length musket (even without the bayonet) I think that is why the Spencer Carbine was adopted in the US Army in the 1860s.

You are certainly welcome to give yourself a prize! Not sure how that will feel, though!

Hi Greta Ann! I was also thinking of sponsoring a tandem contest, so I'm happy to co-sponsor it or sponsor it if you decide not to sponsor it.

As before, I will once again sponsor the Meh-diocrity Pointless Prizes.
These prizes go to the team that ends up exactly in the middle (10th place this year, since there are 19 teams) and the individual rider(s) who score exactly in the middle.
See this thread for last year's quotidian competition.

It takes something special to be exactly average, ya know.

Thank you, Steve O! I added your prize to the list.
