Yeah Dude!
this is my birthday. stoked.
and i hear all the other really fast dudes are doing some cyclocross races that weekend. i will be well on my way to being intoxicated. i may have to find the box with a certain pair of arm warmers in them..
Does full racing kit count as a costume?
@ john i knew this was going to come up! gonna have to veto that unless you are a zombie bike racer...
Add a sign saying "Clean Pro Racer", and everyone'll know it's not real...
I think it should depend on the person. If *I* dressed up in steroid-boy-wannabe getup, it would be a disguise.
@Mick You ride the crosscheck, right? With the wide bars and mirrors and everything? I'm not sure how well that'll blend with a full kit.
Does anyone have an astana kit and syringe I can borrow? I'm going to dress up as Contador.

For bonus points, someone needs to dress up as a tainted cow and follow you around.
@STEVE K -- THE FUCKING TASSLES!
This is great that someone is carrying on the Halloween alleycat tradition.
But can you top Erok and Brad? It'll be tough!
I need some help to complete my costume idea. I want to dress in full Radio Shack kit like Lance Armstrong. I can get that at the Trek shop. What I'm having trouble with is finding a red-headed liar to dress as Floyd Landis and a grumpy, bitter, doughy middle-aged guy to dress as Greg LeMond. Oh, and I'll need my Landis and LeMond to follow me (Lance) around griping and grumbling.
@ALMKLM: I can do grumpy, doughy, and red-haired, if that helps.
@joeframbach With the wide bars and mirrors and everything?
Pretty accurate. (no mirrors)
Probably the most telling detail is that even though I live and ride in Oakland, Pittsburgh's mecca of sophomoric sarcasm, I have never once been called "Lance."
ALMKLM ...grumpy, bitter, doughy middle-aged guy...
You rang?
i'll top this for dave.
Too bad Jason won't be there to defend his undisputed pittsburgh alleycat championship.
This is tonight. No word on if it is part of the Official Pittsburgh Alleycat Championship Series.
what happened here?
anybody do it?
