Two-Thirds of a Devil (66) Time Trial

In celebration of bikes, beer, recreational cannabis, friends and family, another trip around the sun, the arrival of spring, the slow and steady embrace of something like normality in the wake of the pandemic and above all, a somewhat devilish approach to the final third of life, 327 Words proudly presents the The Two-Thirds of a Devil (66) Time Trial, an alleycat-style bike race featuring loads of devilishly entertaining entertainment and plenty of sinfully delicious beverages and edibles  beginning at 2020 Cycle at 21st and Union in Seattle, WA on Saturday, April 15, 2023 at 3:27 sharp, signups commencing around 2:30 or so.

Come on out and enjoy a host of partly-satanic rituals designed to get your own inner Beelzebub bubbling, all on two wheels with plenty of fiendish fun along the way!

Riders, following the traditional group time trial format, will pack together 66 years of shenanigans into far less than 66 miles of"racing," while encountering 5 of the 7 Deadly Sins (2/3 x 7 rounded up!)  

Enjoy this Lucifer-Lite journey into Sloth, Envy, Gluttony, Lust, and Avarice, with perhaps a couple of Heavenly Virtues like Charity and Humility thrown in for good--or is that evil?--measure. 

Race happens, rain, shine, or Biblical plague, no crying or fatal crashes allowed.  Ten bucks suggested donation, (includes a $2.00 donation to Planned Parenthood) with free shot glasses for the first 66 riders,

Prizes—cash and bike schwag—to be awarded for fastest times, men’s and ladies’ divisions, as well as runner-up positions, including, of course, DFL.

Prize sponsors and friends currently on tap or being recruited include:Portland Design Works Fireball Whisky, 2020 Cycle, Swift Industries, Peloton Bicycle Shop and Cafe, Cyclefab, Good Weather Bike and Cafe, Chrome Industries, Liquid Death, and Deb's Lunch.

Embrace this chance to get your bad self on and always remember, Safety Fourth (after Truth, Beauty, and Goodness, according to Miss Jean Brodie.)

Friends, relations, and those too bedeviled to ride, but not to drink, are invited to show up at 2020 Cycle about 6:00 for more devilish fun and prizes, too!
