The Gallon Challenge
July 5th, 2008It is rather funny how competitive cyclists…or athletes in general are! Take for example my Fitchburg roommate Teddy and I. We are staying in the dorms at the Fitchburg State College where the bathrooms are located across the hall. Being a community bathroom the floors are disgusting so instead of putting on shoes to piss at night an empty gallon water jug by my bedside has come in handy. Needless to say it is catching on as 3rd place Fitchburg GC rider Teddy King has recently adopted the practice.
As a corollary to the Fitchburg stage race Teddy and I are having our own race “The Gallon Challenge.” The winner is the first to top off their jug.
Currently, after stage two Teddy (bottle on left) has taken a few ounces out of me (bottle on right). However, it is a long race and I am confident in my abilities!
Wow, it has been difficult entertaining ourselves w/o tv the past few days!
Time to go race, g.

The loser should drink the winner’s bottle. Or at least get a victory lap bottle poured on them.

ever had to use one when too intoxicated to make it to the bathroom??? Also, arent us cyclists supposed to be more hydrated than that? Yellow = dehydration
