Halloween Cross

I only was there for the 1,2's/Masters 30+ race, so I know there were a lot of great costumes I missed. I stopped on my way home from Saturday night's WORS banquet. I stood by the fire barrier with little coffins on either end. There was a wine bottle set up on one of the little coffins, which barrier hoppers would try to knock off. Some people got a little "extra ingredient" added to the mix when they came by, to keep them on their toes... or to give them added incentive to hop a little higher....

A WORS banquet report to come later...until then, congrats to Christine on winning the big raffle grand prize, a GT Zaskar carbon frame that probably weighs less than my camera!

This is the moment where your stomach either leaps into your throat or else turns into a big knot...

Mike P. survived the fireball to take 2nd place.

It's a bit out of focus, but Jeremey's expression is priceless!!! I was so busy taking pictures (and not seeing faces) that I didn't realize for a few laps that it was him. Hmm, I think he needs to read The Official Rules of the Euro Cyclist again (see my last post).

First place Kyle. You can see the little gray coffin on the left. Further left from that was a fire pit.

Dude, check out those tan lines... this had to be one of the best costumes of the day, even though I didn't see them all.

Flying Santa!

Aris' fuzzy pj's are so awesome, they have feet! Ideal Halloween post-race wear on such a cold, windy day.



And this one I put for Chris and Kim, and Sprout! Some costume ideas for the future? (update: I just found out this is James LaLonde from looking at someone else's flickr)
