More contestants have come up to the rollers and given them their best spin. First timers as well as people making second attempts blasted their legs today. Shop favorite Eric Scaiff is behind Josh Hickman by 1/100th of a kilometer. Now that’s tight! This weekend should be quite interesting as we’re down to the last couple of days of competition.
Brian “Ultimate motivation” Meacham came in today and not only did he tie his personal best but went for another try about ten minutes later. For your efforts Brian you get an extra five tickets for the lottery.
Brian tied his personal best

The Contender roller race had it’s first ever female participant this afternoon. Hila Smith took up the challenge spun like a champ. And by the way, she learned how to ride rollers the day before too and wants to give it more shot. Great job Hila. For her efforts she’s receiving an extra five tickets for lottery. I’m feeling generous so ladies you better come find me quick.
Burke Swindlehurst (Salt Lake local pro) was in the store today and I offered up the challenge to him, let’s see if he’s takes me up on it. Now that would be interesting to see.
