Awesome job!! Now I know how to turn our two hybrids into reindeer for our Christmas idea. We will be hauling our led-lit bike trailer dressed up like a sleigh with my huge teddy bear in it, but I wasn’t sure how to make DH and I look like we were riding reindeer - you have inspired me!! Have fun with the ride - hope you win the contest!

ohhh, very nice! That tail must have looked real pretty trailing out behind
And I like the slight Christmassy touch.Winter riding is much less about badassery and much more about bundle-uppery. - malkin

JiJi lost her tail on the second lap
Short story as we're going out to dinner - more later.
I was dismounting at the barriers on the second lap when I accidentally kicked JiJi's tail. IT FELL OFF!
Other than that, the front held up just fine. I will take pictures so you can see how I attached the front to the bike. The secret is to use a really really good bike box for your cardboard. Trek packs their new bikes in a double corrugated cardboard box. The Fuji's and Schwinn's aren't as strong. The Orbea's come in a good box too so maybe any of the higher end bike boxes will do!
Hit your shop up for their boxes. They're more than likely going in the trash anyways. Oh and don't wait to start your project until the day before the race either...
Oh and Mr. Silver - all of my bikes have streamers and always will - promise
