Hugs from years past.

Well that’s a wrap for this year. We had a blast and looking forward to next year. We’re sorry we ran out of Mallört. If you want to insult your taste buds and the local store doesn’t carry it, Raymond’s Reserve ### is a reasonable substitute. A few pics from the day.

We’re waiting for you.

So we only have about 40 pounds of bacon for Saturday. Don't worry, we have a generator and flat screen backup plan for those that aren't in a hurry.

Thanks Ken for securing our Gold sponsor! Some people have asked "Why Malört at the Hugs & Bacon aid station?" It's simple, Malört is like a liquid Hug! We asked them to supply us with enough to satisfy about 200 thirsty racers, so they sent us a free bottle and an Ugly Sweater.

Edit: My bad. My dyslexia kicked in, I meant to say Malört is like a liquid Ugh!

Yo Polar Rollers! We lost the donor bike for the Wheel of Destiny over the summer. Fortunately, we found another and were able to address the major concern that many riders had last winter, that about 1/2 of the spins landed on MALÖRT. Problem Solved! See you next Saturday!
