Octoberfest run – Barmaids on Bikes
The Orrong Hotel was once famous for having a greasy pole as well as greasy pig competitions. Don’t know where all the greasy poles have gone so we needed another theme. Being October, it was an Octoberfest run from the Orrong and the hares got into the spirit in their Octoberfest barmaid costumes.
For the entire run we were shadowed by barmaids on bikes as they herded us towards Orrong Park for a German Beer drink stop, very welcome on a 31 degree evening. Young Hoorytio got into the German spirit by wearing lederhosen while Cooch, attempting to look teutonic, donned a blonde/silver grey Beatles style wig. He looked like a cross between Bob Katter and an ageing 60s porn star. Udder advises me that such a person was John Holmes, well he’d know! Cooch’s cousin Carl Rackemann was once a candidate for Katter’s Australian Party. Others wore the German colours while Cut Loose got it horribly wrong by wearing a Belgian jumper, thereby referencing “The War”.
Lots of goulash and strudel for dinner washed down with lashings of German beer served in whacking great steins.

Special Runs

Deeper described the run – lots of lanes, railway lines, SCBs, parks, buyable houses, and in his case give-away-able houses.
Pegamatite described the walk which was similar to above except that they were stalked by the helicopter hares. Run/walk awarded 69/69.
