Yes, the 'loss' of my bike - proof of my extreme gullibility. Things get patchy not long after the bottom fell from my glass (anyone not there won't realise just how literal that is). Somehow I got myself and my bike home safely. I know that I didn't have too much money on me, so I only need to brave checking my debit card account. Events are still too close - and painful - to put my mind to next year's. I remember that we had a suggestion to give more incentive for all contestants to down the second pint, although I can't remember what it was. I guess potentially we could set people off at minute intervals so that it's not already won as people arrive for their second. It would certainly make for a messier finish!
