North American Cycle Courier Championships - Chicago - Next Week!

YES! This is SOON! Not this weekend but the weekend after that! And I will be in Chicago, and I will probably race, and I will definitely finish close to DFL if I do race! Who cares!?! Everyone should be coming to this, it's going to be a blast. Here's the word from the official site: "just to get it out there and clear up any confusion, everyone is welcome to participate in the race. Non-Messengers are encouraged to compete, and will be placed in their own category for ranking and prizes. Oh yeah. Bring a helmet and plan to wear it. You should already know this, but just in case..." Get all the details you need, register, and buy a sweet NACCCs edition Chuey brand cycling cap, over on the main NACCCs page.

So true.

There's going to be a big bike polo tournament at the NACCCs too, just in case you don't get enough excitement from all the racing and drunken shenanigans. Go here for more details and to register.

"The 4th annual Chicago Messenger Prom (brought to you by PBR, 4 Star Courier Collective, and Chrome) will be held in conjunction with the NACCC. Hell. Yes. This years Prom will be held Saturday August 30th at the Bottom Lounge - 1375 W Lake (Lake east of Ashland) from 8pm - 2 am. Free entry to registered racers, volunteers, and sponsors. Non-participants, same as always, $15 solo/$20 per couple, dress to impress. That means suits, ties, sexy dresses, bike caps and giant banana costumes."
