Meet Rufus the badger!
Well, Team Badger Badger Badger Badger are in the final phase of preparations now, with another busy weekend under our belts. Our Techno Badger has been christened Rufus, as in Rufus a badgers arse... how Rufus tends to feel after a mashed up weekend!
This weekend, we got cracking on the costumes with Pez, Al and Fran getting busy with spray paint!
This week saw Al, 'len and Al's dad finish of the badger and wings. The rigging of the wings took a vast quantity of washing line and a lot of patience!
The final touches have been added, including the throwing down of a gauntlet to the other teams - the Rufus the badger is taking ALL of you down... well that and the 6 metre ramp!
He's has a nifty little numberplate too!
All in all, we think he's looking pretty damn good. The team on the other hand, are bloomin' knackered - just a few props, placards and costume bits to go though!!!
Anyway, more news as it happens, but for now, enjoy a lovely picture of Rufus, resplendent with his wings! See you on the 7th!

Team Badger Badger Badger Badger on Midlands Today
If you live in the Midlands, you may have seen us on BBC Midlands Today news at some point over Bank Holiday Monday. Despite the mis-spelling of the Captain's surname and the faint implication that Al is a Badgerphile, it all went rather swimmingly!
Here's a link to it on You Tube in case you missed it. I'll embed a video soon, once I've worked out how to do it! For now, check it out here

We Love Sport!!!
We lunatic members of Team Badger Badger Badger Badger adore sport (well, watching it anyway - gravity-related badger sports is generally as far as we get to active participation) and Sport Magazine in particular! These lovely people have included a piece about the Flugtag in their "Extreme Summer Madness" article in the May issue, and, unbeknownest to us, mentioned Team Badger Badger Badger Badger as their fave team!!!
Check it out on page 24 of http://www.myfreesport.co.uk/images/stories/issues/76/Sport076.pdf , or page 46 of the magazine if you've picked a copy up - it's free in most inner London tube/train stations, airports, gyms and big city offices. We're delighted to be their hot tip and will do our damndest to make them proud!
