Blog Wars part deux

Further to our post yesterday on the Blog war between Trevor Mallard and Cameron "WhaleOil" Slater, there's been a development today - WhaleOil blogs:

Trevor Mal­lard has issued a chal­lenge. As is usual for the crip­ple he has picked the one sport he is good at it (if you can all it a sport) and he has also picked on the wrong per­son for a challenge.

So Trevor, I accept your chal­lenge, how­ever some things need to be sorted before we go head to head.

Firstly, I need a bike, not just any bike the same bike you use. We have to race using exactly the same equip­ment. It is only fair. The only dif­fer­ence will be the rid­ers. A Crip­ple vs a Whale.

Sec­ondly, the race will be on August 15 and I pick 60kms for the dis­tance, if you are going to go, go big.

Thirdly, since you picked a sport that you excel at, it is only fair that there be a counter-challenge and I choose box­ing. You men­tioned your “fear” of my exces­sive bulk. I cur­rently weigh 105kg. You stated in the com­ments on Red Alert that if I got train­ing then I would lose 30kg and you’re are prob­a­bly right, there­fore there should be no rea­son other than your cow­ardice for reject­ing a box­ing match 8 weeks after our cycle race

We will be watching for Trevor Mallard's response. We don't know what has prompted Slater's change of heart over the cycling component, but we wish him well as he prepares for the big day. Blogosphere bragging rights will be at stake here, and doubtless the winner will dine out at the loser's expense. On that basis, it could be argued that Trevor Mallard has more to lose.

Watch this space for the next episode; this will be waaaaaay better than reality TV!

Go Whale! how many of his critics would have the balls to do that? I'm looking at you Guyton.
