Holidaze and the Blitz-ard of 2009

Happy New Year from the Brew Crew! The Holidays were a nice wrap up to 2009. Good friends, great beers, fun times on bikes and a fun event to finish it off. Below are some pictures from the week before Christmas and the Holidaze Alleycat race. As you can tell we had fun.

As we all head into 2010 together look for more of the same from the Crew. Pisgah Brewing Company will once again support us in our efforts to provide Asheville with our unique style of bike racing events. In 2010 look for the upcoming bike movie nights at the Brewery, Heartbreaker, Enduro, and a springtime reggae themed alleycat coming your way.

We made some good friends and had some good times in 2009. Thanks to everyone who attended our events and or helped out by volunteering and making some good stuff happen.

See you on the trail in 2010,

The Brew Crew

Snow what..

You can't stop the Holidaze from coming. Snow or no snow, it's on at the moment. If it gets absolutely insane we'll just have a party and ride snowboards in the streets. There is a keg of Pisgah Pale Ale on my front porch and it's snowing like crazy so whatever happens it's going to be a fun weekend. See you at Fuddruckers at 1:00 on Sunday, we roll out at 1:15.

The Holidaze is coming..

It's happening again. Hope to see you there.. The minor details are on paper and in my head and will be on the blog soon.

Well WTF is an alleycat scavenger hunt you ask, please allow me to explain. We will converge on a soon to be announced location in Downtown Asheville at 1:00 on Sunday December 20th for an urban ride in which there will be a few mandatory checkpoints combined with a search for Asheville landmarks and other objectives, clues, and challenges along the route. If you take a shortest route possible you will ride approx. 7-9 miles so bring a bike or costume that can handle a few miles of pedaling.The ride will end at the home of one of the Brew Crew where snacks and various drinks will be served. A keg or two of Pisgah Brewing’s finest will of course be in the house so get ready to party and dance into the night after riding your bike around the city for a few hours.The ride is meant to be fun but speed and knowledge of downtown Asheville will certainly help and prizes will be awarded for fastest time and most points as well as other awards. The entry will cost you 5 cans of food that will be donated to a local charity.

Same rules apply as last year.. But teams must stay together (Bonnie and Tavis).

You need to bring the following.

A bicycle and light.

A messenger bag or backpack.

Bike Lock.Pen and paper.

Digital Camera or camera phone.

A few bucks for drinks along the way, if you choose.

A map of the city might help if you don’t know your way around very well.

A cell phone.

5 cans of food for donation.

Again, the event will take place in the downtown Asheville Area on Sunday December 20th 2009 and start at 1:00. Prizes of all types will be awarded for a variety of accomplishments.

More info to come next week.

It will be family friendly as long as your kids are cool and there will of course there will be a party at the finish with a keg of Pisgah Pale Ale to quench your thirst.

The start location will be announced in the next few days so pay attention.

Hope to see you.
