I'm thinking this is starting to be a COJ spinoff thread.

You would have to be pretty "Donk" to push thru that rolling resistance though. (if I am following the concept)

Make your declaration to jszat and see if he still has any jerseys left.  Just tell us, they still have Zima in Canada anywhere?  You can't find it anymore for the newbie blessing.

i think we can get enough for another order maybe if we throw a thread out there.  seems an old large doesnt cut it for me and by MOO i should be downright medium.  The Nation (aka The Pace) takes all who adhere to the stubborn and steady as well as being overall good peeps.  EEEAAWWW!!!

At my race this weekend I saw a team trailer with the name "Tridonkey" on it.  Definitely not you guys and I almost asked them to explain themselves.

Then I realized I spend too much time reading BT forums, worrying about a group of people I don't even know...

You got any more info on these "imposters"?! Plate number, state of plate, perp descriptions, how did they perform, did you see which way they went post race? I may have to send some of my "friends" to pay them a visit....

This is why I cant bike with you on my easy days, cuz you are angry all the time and bike that way too.  If you actually read the website, there are philosophical similarities as well as donkeydom.  Gonna drop em a line and see whats up.  Annexation?  And official, we are Team Turbo Donkey and the Tri Donkai kit is a take off on Tri Dubai. Donkey, Donkai, tomato, tomAto, etc, etc.

Donkey lifestyle is very simple, being stubborn and refusing to give up, "following the carrot". Read many of our sig lines for an example.

Instead of wearing jerseys with sponsors logos, etc. The donkeys wear jerseys signifying their donkey status. The most common being a picture of a donkey on the front, and a carrot on the back.

 

So is the non sequitur intentional?  Either way it is pretty funny.

You going to take care of the pi$$ part on 9/13? 



Note:  Do not touch Mrs. AK's bike seat the day after IMWI.  You have been warned.

Hey there BT Donkeys,  

It is Tridonkey1 from the aformentioned www.Tridonkey.com.  We should have a Minnesconsin Donkey Throwdown (assuming it is followed by libations and relaxing).  the Tridonkey movement is anything but an exclusive club,  more of a lifestyle (and not limited to the midwest).  We just love to get out and train and race, and not take anythying to serious.  we have strong ties to the big lebowski and chimay beer.

I am currently working on the first draft of the tridonkey decleration of independance that will be posted soon,  but I am not tommy jefferson, so it is taking time.

keep up the racing.  

The tridonkey trailer will be at wildflower next year and all over the midwest this year,  stop in to say hi and introduce yourselves.  we shoud have some cool tridonkey podium shirts ready in a few weeks for anyone to grab up.

Anybody going to be at Chisago HIM?  I am still looking for a HIM that fits my schedule and think this might give me reason to ride up for the race, but thats in the speculative stages right now.
