YEAH... don't forget we have the "Custom Edge" advantage... secret pre-Dragon strategy session to ensue (over drinks, for maximum creative juices).

Hey, I have an IMPORTANT question:


Does the rider have to lie down or can they sit?

Good question.

I was curious about the rules.


Do we have to push? can we pull? do we have to be holding on to the creeper or the person riding the creeper?

okay, read the instructions and got my own answer:

"One person will sit on a Bone-ster (TM) creeper and will help steer as the other person pushes them through a slalom of cones"

C'mon, peeps! Last day to sign up is tomorrow, I need all entries in before 5 pm Eastern so I can make team nametags!

Remember, you're competing to get a creeper worth $90 for free! You can't go wrong! They're sitting behind me here in my office, saying "race me! Race me!" I don't want to have to disappoint them by saying that they can't have all 16 teams running!

Besides, it's gonna be harder to pick a winner if there aren't exactly 16 teams... guess I'll have to plan that scenario out...

But c'mon! It's free! Imagine how fun it'll be, especially with some beer! But remember... no spittin' and no cussin'. There's a team of kids competing (which means you guys have some tough competition, as kids have good endurance, and weigh less), so ya gotta be good! Hehe.

I think you're mistaken... Two of them are saying (rather excitedly I might add) mbabischkin and paul! are going to win us!

Well, if we only have 14 or 15 teams, we'll just do time trials. I'll use the stopwatch I nicked from Applebees when I worked there, and the fasted two teams will win.

I made up nametags for all the teams... since there are only 14 registered, I made up two extras "Unregistered ******* Team A" and "Unregistered ******* Team B". Otherwise saying, if you want a better team name than that and haven't signed up yet, do so by 5 pm eastern today so I can make the nametags before I leave work!

For the rest of you - let's make it a good, clean race!

(Have the 6 Bone-sters crammed in my MINI, now I have to find a spot for the MINI Cool Bag and the MINI luggage. I can make it work, teehee.)

See ya'll tomorrow!

Do you have a rough estimate on how big the Bone-sters are? I wanna make sure I leave enough room for mine on the ride home.

Gentlemen (and women) start creeping!

43" long x 23 3/8" wide x about 4" tall.

I have six in my car, I put them in through the passenger door, they're angled just a bit to fit properly so I can have room behind them to put luggage. You can also load one straight in the back and put stuff on/around it.
