Thanks guys, it was a truly fantastic day, and much fun had by all.
I'll leave the others to comment on what the crowd thought of the boys costumes as I wasn't with them for the race, but judging by the looks of passers by as we walked down to the start point they seemed to go down very well. Lots of bemused smiles from elderly ladies.
The beauty of Bay to Breakers is that the benchmark for shock value is set very high. We did see a high number of 'swine flu' related outfits, an entire family running in the theme of Star Trek with the baby's buggy dressed up as the Enterprise, people dressed as bees, earwigs, lobsters, sharks and of course lots of naked people. Fantastic! [:)]
Thanks,
Sarah
