Go Banana has finally risen from the shadow of the Big Ringers. Since last summer when the biggest rivalry in MTB history came head to head at the BC bike race, it had been all Bing Ring. They constantly mocked us by biking faster than us, getting sponsors, keeping their blog better up-to-date and appearing in all the pictures from the race (while Go Banana didn't make any). Well... no longer!!! Go Banana got a talking spot in the Ride Guide's coverage of the BC Bike Race. "I'm starting to not like this gravel road anymore" is just one of the pearls of wisdom I dispensed during my 3 seconds of fame. You can check out the video here.In fairness to the Big Ringers, I may have seen a tattooed arm bike by during the video, but that's like being an extra or supporting character... it's no leading role-- suckas!!
Side note : Congratulations to the Original Big Ring on the arrival of his new granny gear.

while you were busy putting on make-up, sipping lemondae in the shade and taking casting calls for your line, me and curvy butt were riding.
Can I get your autograph?! Sign my boob.
cheers
Hmmm,
I reviewed the video and it looked like the big ringers were doing the
BC Bike Walk.
Did anyone there (no big ringers please) actually see Craig riding a bike in the race?
It is no small feat to walk that far. Well done.
Evidence

It's hard to ride in such a congested field of riders . . . . hard to understand that when you're at the back of the race, eh?!
Ummmm . . . . guess you didn't see the rest of the video . . . half way in the video I was BLAZING through some single track (probably while you two were having Perrier delivered to you while sitting in the shade between lines). I'm also at the end celebrating after stage 7 while you two are STILL riding your bikes.
We were going to finish near the top of the pack but then we decided to get the most out of our entry fee (and also because of physical limitations). I think you'll clearly see we managed to get way more time out on the trails then you guys did. When you take your entry fee and divide it by the hours on the trails we got the best dollar/hour rate.
So it looks like you guys won the "time" contest, but we won "talking on TV" AND "cost per hour of biking". So it very clear we won 2-1 :-)
you guys are so smrt!
Analogues exist?
