Hotter’N Hell Hundred – The Big Pigs invaded the long running famous road ride up in Wichita Falls, Tx. We decided to get in a little road for some diversity! The weather was actually very good, cool in the morning and no headwinds! Opposite of what the weather usually is.
Porkchop, mr clean, Big Daddy, traildust, Chaos, Cope and Cope’s Chic arrived in force. We all stayed at the YMCA and kept a couple of other riders awake while we partook in pre-ride drinks, cutting up and Frisbee!
Not much of a story to tell on a road ride, we all took off, pedaled for a long time, hit a few rest stops and pedaled on. Saw a lot of wrecks from unskilled or not paying attention, which comes back to skill again, riders. Some were pretty bloody.
Chaos rode is famous Fixie and kept everyone alive down the road as he greeted everyone. Cope’s Chic (Susan) completed her first 100 mile ride and her first time at HHH. She did an awesome job. Completed it in 5:45 min ride time at around 18 mph.

This year was a true breakout year for Big Pig Racing. In addition to numerous individual accomplishments, there were some proud and profound team moments as well. Two members, Rich “big pig” Szecsy and Ray “1+1=1” Porter both traveled to Canada to represent Big Pig Racing in the 24hr Solo World Championships, in the singlespeed [...]
