The rally is right around the corner. Are you thinking of strategy?

 

How can you get from the start to the Cheeky Checkpoint/ Shiny Checkpoint and to PTuning in the shortest distance?

 

Will you carefully calculate miles when the checkpoints are revealed making sure you cut off any possible distance driving through parking lots to make the shortest distance?

 

Will you play hard or be laughing to hard to figure any of this out and just motor through.

 

Will you rely on your wit and charm with the judges to win as many miles off coupons as you can? Pandering to the officials is highly encouraged, I really like the color orange and gluten free cookies....

 

Will you cheat? If so, I hope you do so gloriously

 

In case you aren't fully clear on the miles coupons they serve two purposes.

1. you can take the miles off of your final mileage

2. you can dole them out to your competitors and ADD miles to their final mileage

 

You decide.....

 

If you're not familiar with Top Gear you might want to watch a few episodes where they score one of their challenges on the white board.

Those of you participating on Saturday be sure to wish Melissa and Valerie the happiest of birthdays! Melissa is celebrating at Dice Burger tomorrow night and will be working at the rally. Valerie will be riding along in Lillith with her daughter Jennifer.

Good news, PTuning has confirmed that the brewery next door will have a food truck. I don't know what kind but that means you can buy real food cause while we're awesome and all, the DCMM food budget is skimpy. We'll still provide some punch and pie and snacks

This was an epic event because you are an EPIC club! Thanks to everyone who turned out. And a special thank you to all of you who brought bribes for the judges. Words cannot express how much we appreciated your thoughtful gestures but I will try when I finally get caught up on my blogging!
