More DC at the ATOC

From: Tad F.
DC, I chose the T.O.C. over getting my ass kicked @ the State Finals in Flag. Stage 8 was a freak show & I was proud to be a part of it.

I even had a chance to drink from the cup on the Big Bear stage. DC was present for the occasion.

About big jonny

The man, the legend. The guy who started it all back in the Year of Our Lord Beer, 2000, with a couple of pages worth of idiotic ranting hardcoded on some random porn site that would host anything you uploaded, a book called HTML for Dummies (which was completely appropriate), a bad attitude (which hasn’t much changed), and a Dell desktop running Win95 with 64 mgs of ram and a six gig hard drive. Those were the days. Then he went to law school. Go figure. Flagstaff, Arizona, USA

  1. …props to bianchi & miss america for reppin’ the vagitarians…lookin’ most excellent, ladies…

    …care to double up & share that awesome pulchritude w/ a healthy ol’ bike sleaze ???…

  2. …uhhh, tad ???…there is a legend about ‘lord stanley’s cup’ that sez if you hoist the cup before you win it, you’ll never get to seize that opportunity…

    …if you are on a winning team, you get 1 full day to do with & share the cup as you please (& those stories are legend)…

    …if two brothers play on different nhl teams & one wins the cup, on the day that the one brother gets to have it, i guarantee you, the other will not under any circumstance pick up that cup…it’s too ingrained from childhood & the hockey gods are watching…

    …you, sir, may have just jinxed the whole drunkcyclist hockey team…
    ************************************************************************************************

    …oh, sorry, tad…consider this a written apology…

    …i’ve just been informed that that’s not the real stanley cup & there’s also no drunkcyclist hockey team…damn…& i used to be a solid left winger back in my playing days…

    …go blackhawks…& fuck the flyers…

  3. As a loyal Canadian who has been waiting for Lord Stanley’s cup to come back to Toronto where it rightfully belongs since 1967 I can only say this, Flyers? Hawks? Who will win the cup? The correct answer is, Who Cares?!

  4. I have to imagine that a few of them thar hockey players blessed with a day o’ cup, might have jerked off all over it’s tits because that’s the first thing that came to my mind in regards making a mark.

    Then Tad had to go and drink out of it, which pretty much ruined it for me.

    Just say’n.

  5. …gnomer…pros in any major sport will tell you enviously there ain’t nothing quite like hockey’s celebratory cup…

    …as a kid, in any sport, you dream about winning the championship…you hit the winning home run in “the world series”, or score the winning touchdown in “the super bowl”, maybe drive the winning car in the “indianapolis 500” or shoot the winning basket in whatever the fuck the basketball thingy is called, but in hockey you dream of winning “the stanley cup”…it’s all about winning that trophy, “the cup”

    …while champagne & beer have regularly been drunk out of it, it has not only had babies foto-ed in it, one crapped in it…

    …it’s been in tons of swimming pools including sitting on the bottom (where it got dinged up)…

    …guy have eaten breakfast cereal from it to start their day w/ it…

    …the rangers left it in the bar they were celebrating in, the night they last won it ‘cuz everybody thought the other guy was taking it home for safekeeping…

    …guys have taken it out in basic rowboats to just sit & fish for a few hours with the chance to reflect on what they’ve dreamed of since they were kids (i like the introspective aspect of that)…

    …players who grew up in little one horse farm or bush towns of under a thousand people will announce the date they’re gonna bring it home & 10,000 folks from miles around will show up…

    …but i think my favorite, & this is because as kids we grew up playing street hockey when we weren’t playing organized rink hockey, always pretending we were playing for the cup
    …(“& bikesgonewild scores the winning goal in overtime to clinch the cup !!!“)…whoops, sorry…still dreamin’ it could happen…
    …but players have gotten their old neighborhood pals together, the whole block shows up, the stanley cup gets plunked down on the curb, maybe some beers get passed around & old friends in sneakers w/ hockey sticks & a tennis ball play for the real fucking cup…

    …hokey as all get out, unsophisticated & unpretentious but down home hockey fun…i love it…

  6. I think I’d rock it as the centerpiece in the yard, with lawn chairs all around, and swill beer, and just look at it like I often just look at my bikes.

    But I’m socal in origins, and i’ve never even put a pair of skates on.

    Judi: the force is strong in you yet, there is still much to be learned. LOL!

  7. checked out first two stages of the tour , skipping santa rosa next year, rains every time and Levi refuses to win that stage at home ?. I think the toc has cemented itself as a great race with riders and fans . would like to see them move a stage up to far nor cal , the belly of the beast.
