Hey Guys–

I’ve been asked by Cadence if I could post this link (http://www.cadencekonachallenge.com) on Slowtwitch so they can get the word out. Here’s a list of the prizes. Not listed, if you’re a slowtwitcher i’ll throw in those red shoes–but they smell like burnt Indian food!:

Is Cadence accepting applications from Canadians? I’d love an excuse to hit NYC.

of course! Walton’s a canuck, so you guys can talk about ice and snow and Bryan Adams…

oh, and bumpizzle.

Walton was a Canadian gold medalist in the Olympics point race in 1996 :-). He went off the front and all the Euros looked at each other thinking the guy is an idiot…well, he got enough of the a lead that he bagged most of the points…enough that the Euros could not catch up…gutsy move in a long track race like that.

Silver medalist :wink: Ahead of a young Aussie who protested that Brian didn’t actually lap the field—Stuart O’Grady. Here we are at the top of some hill in Vancouver right before his BC Sports Hall of Fame induction.
