What is this Roller Frenzy Derby thing?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0JgBalmHVoY
It's a social event based around bicycle roller racing. Two sets of rollers are connected to a mechanical dial. As the rollers are driven, the dial rotates – simulating a lap on the track. Head-to-head handicapped races and time trial events test everyone’s abilities and provide a great backdrop to a social night out with a bunch of bicycle nuts. Being a handicap - everyone has a chance to win! There are still prizes for fastest, so dont hold back...

What bike can I ride?
Ride whatever bike you like - singlespeed, fixie, road, MTB, BMX - whatever you got. The only restrictions are on gearing. Juniors must ride their appropriate gear for their age group. Seniors (18+) cannot ride a gear bigger than 50:14 (96.46"). On a road bike that is 53:15. If you're on a road bike or MTB you pick an equivalent gear or less, and stick to it - no changing gears mid event. Cranks must be 165mm, or longer.

Email entries through to rollers@pacc.org.au, if you are just coming for a drink or to heckle others, just rsvp thru facebook.

Spectators welcome with a Gold Coin Donation to CDH fund

Watch the SCC track racing from 6pm and the Derby will start upstairs about 7ish
