Team Fast Friday Being Formed


Dateline: Bern, Switzerland 10:00 GMT

Fast Friday Director Tod Turley announced today that the rumors are true that Fast Friday is forming a racing team over the Winter to start competing in Road Races, MTB Races, Triathlons, and Hot Dog Eating Contests. As many FF'ers are being tempted to join teams such as Team One and Amgen, Team FF (or TFF) is the counter culture team. Having analyzed the various teams in the World, true FF'ers do not have the DNA to survive a traditional cylclist team because they lack the unfavorable characteristics needed to stay on such a team.

The FF charter is clear: [No] uptight, cocky, angry person can be in the group. Accordingly, diplomacy, good naturedness and humility will be key characteristics of race participants.

The TFF advance team (Tod, Gary and PJ) are madly scurrying about doing the normal organizational things such as Jersey design (jerseys, shorts, arm warmers, leg warmers, chammy cream, watches, socks, etc.), UCI registration, website design, etc.

Don't be a bandwagoner..join now and pledge your allegiance. TFF will take over the World and you can say that you were a charter member. If you have ill advisedly joined another team, we will take you back. Our goal will be to participate in any events that our members want to race. To wit, here is the race director's list:
- 24 Hours of Temecula
- Epic 100 at Brianhead
- 24 Hours of Moab
- High Sierra Century

Make your own list and let us know. The website will contain rider profiles, clothing display/ordering store, rider calendar and it will be linked to the Blog.

This will work because Gary Wolfe is involved and everything Gary touches is successful and well thought out.

We are welcoming sponsors in the following priority: (1) our own companies to be put on the back pocket area of the Jersey in a discreet fashion - need to sign up and commit this year, (2) companies who can get us killer pricing on equipment and (3) sponsors with gobs of cash for distribution to TFF members.
