What are goldsprints?

When you sprint for shots of Goldschlager?

Actually, you aren't to far off. Goldsprints is a head to head sprint competition on a trainer/computer/ overhead projector that measures time, speed, and distance and projects the results on a wall - in a bar. Its more fun than true competition. I mean, you don't want to show up in a bar in a unitard skin suit - no chance of getting digits dressed like that. You show up with your bike, a t shirt, some short pants; and you go head to head. Bam! Tons of fun.
