Actually, Peter, there has been no Official Long-Hair Challenge.
As usual, these guys have spent a lot of time posing and being cool, but
have shown no substance -- like a team list, counter-rules, a limit on the
number of members to count, etc., etc.
I doubt you will see them there on Sunday either, what with all their
complaining about the cold, cars w/o tops, no rain tires, no scarves, etc.,
etc.
And the Steering Committee has been considering putting up a nice prize for
the winners, too!
Looks like the Sloths shall win uncontested.
Right?
