"Test event planned for Kingsbridge Armory in May, 2012
Jack Simes, the CEO of the National Cycling Association, recently
unveiled his organisation's plans to bring Six Day racing back to its
place of origin - New York City. Simes, a world championship silver
medalist on the track and a veteran of European Six Day racing in the
early 1970s, has tentatively scheduled the New York 6 Day for May
17-22 within the Bronx's Kingsbridge Armory."

Please keep us posted on this one. I used to be a big fan of Sixes and
promised myself I would go to see the Whitney's Hopper collection before
I die so...

If you're really lucky Cav and Wiggo will show up for the madison, I know how

Hey, the more the merrier. If six day racing starts up in NYC, 30
minutes from me by bike, I'd be so damn happy I'd even call Homeland
Security and have them take you off the no-fly list. Then you could
come over here, watch some bike racing and drink some good beer
instead of that swill you're drinking now.

I've seen a number of Dennis' movies and I don't know why they're
keeping you alive. ;)

I will certainly be crowing if they do pull off the six days, so don't
worry about me not posting about it.

Would the fact that I'm a multiple axe-murderer matter?

You've got the wrong guy, I hate English traditional beers, it's cold
continental lagers for me. The Armory looks like an interesting building, how
the **** can something like that have stood empty since 96?

Ah, I doubt that very much. Most Sixes have a brewer as their main
sponsor and I doubt a foreign beer would have either the inclination or
money to put into something like that. Crap beer and Sixes - it's
tradition so expect Budweiser or Coors or some other undrinkable ****e
to be the only one available. At London Sixes in the Sixties and
Seventies it was Skol who were the main sponsors. Unfortunately for
them, most people who went were active cyclists or discerning beer
drinkers. It couldn't last.

Ummm...no...? Unless of course you're going to be needing to borrow
an axe. People get real tetchy about them's axes. So bring your
own. Tell the TSA guys and customs that it's for a Renaissance fair
reenactment.

Ya got me, man. Forty years ago large parts of the worst area of the
Bronx stood vacant. They instituted a program to install painted
plywood in the window openings so it looked more "cheery".

Any property like that becomes a political football, and it takes a
while for it to get a goal.

Oh I know there are good beers in America, but tradition and money
dictate that there be only one beer at these events and unless there's a
local brewery with pots of money I doubt it will be a good one you end
up with. They have to get all the sponsorship they can and one of the
traditional mainstays of Six Day Racing sponsorship is having a brewery
on board.

Expensive book, but rather cool "leaf through" link lets you look

Most of it's just as crap as everybody's else's. Well, most of the best
selling stuff *is* somebody else's, but only the worst unfortunately.
Stella Artois FFS. In Belgium you only see Stella in plastic bottles in
supermarkets for the alkies to buy, and yet in the UK it's seen as a
premium beer. The power of marketing <sigh>

There are so many good beers in most countries you could never hope to
taste them all. I always think the best thing is to avoid anything that
is advertised on TV, you should be OK then...
