Every year on Cooper's Hill in Gloucester, England people compete for cheese. Apparently this has been going on since the 1800's? They chase the 8lb wheel of cheese down a super steep hill, the hill is so steep most people can not stay on their feet. It is so dangerous multiple ambulances are always on hand; today 19 people were taken to the hospital injured after falling for cheese. The next competition is May 25th 2009; is there any chance a certain exemplary Wine & Cheese boutique would consider sponsoring a roller? If so I would like to nominate Tyler; he likes to travel and has been looking for a reason to get in shape. I think this could be just the type of event he could really get inspiration and train for.
Here is the hill....

Here is a view from the top of the hill...

there will be buffoonery
I will sponsor everything but the medical bills.
Being vertical is hip. I would like to hangglide from the top of this hill like a mug.
Cacao!
I would also like to be chased down this hill by the bulls of pamplona. That would combine (2) things I need to do before I die in one day.
