'Twas a fun time! Thanks to the organizers and
all who worked the stops. I thought everything
worked nicely. It was hard to hear at the beginning,
but when isn't the race start mayhem? :)

Thanks cheffelipe for putting up with Drunky McDrunkster.
I don't know how I had 10 drinks without getting queasy
at all, considering that 2 of them were the recommended
Amaretto Sours (blech! ptooey!).

Way to go Susan, Zito and Kelly Mac!
Who came in 2nd and 3rd for speed?
I thought I was with it at the time, but
apparently I missed a lot.

The ride was awesome! I went with my 2 roommates and bf. It felt like the amazing race, especially when we jumped on the light rail . . . We managed to finish in a bit under 3 hours hitting all the stops, and thankfully one of us in the group knew how to use Metro Transit Trip Planner as we were going from Cars-r-Coffins to Sunrise. We pushed it and had about 30 seconds to spare at the station.

Does anyone know what the winning time was? We were sort of disappointed too about not having our manifest taken - but it's kind of cool to keep it too. Here was our route - split into parts since we jumped on the train:

Damndamndamn!

I has my bike all tuned and ready to go, but I couldn't make this one, due to circumstances beyond my control and my ability to make interesting.

I did catch a couple of the bars y'all were at afterward, BLB and Grumpy's. Of course, I was way behind in intoxication, and hadn't just done a race, so I was aiming to stay out later than most.

Did anyone happen to do Saturday Night Ride after everything? I was in Dinktown around 10ish, and didn't see anybody, but either I was too late, or everyone was out partying.

Just thought I'd step in after the last second, again... :(

This was my first stupor bowl and I had a blast. I wasn't going to ride in the race but a few friends talked me into it. (thankfully) I will definitely be riding this again next year.

Here is my contribution to Stupor Bowl XI. I will work on tagging the photos, but feel free to add tags where I miss things.

Thanks to Andy and Nick for letting me know where the after party would be, since I couldn't race due to work.

Beau and a few friends from down in Mankato were here. We just took it easy and had some beers. Didn't see a lot of folks until we hit up the Nomad.

If anyone found a Planet Bike Superflash on the ground somewhere in the circus that was the end party, I dropped it at some point. I know it was in the club because I just saw a photo of me and it was still on my bag, but it wasn't when I left.

And if you only found one, Curlybro and I can duke it out.

So, what's the final verdict on Stupor Champ?

A flock of little birds chirped that Curlybro came in
ahead of Zito by 10 minutes...wha?
