Pirates of the Kornfield- July 14-17 Springfield IL US

[Johnny Payphone]

Bike Clubs currently gather in major cities around the world for our holidays- Chunkathalon, Slaughterama, St. Chinos, etc... but we're trying to cultivate smaller, midwestern clubs and events. Pirates of the Kornfield is Klunker League Now's annual event. Last year we didn't even make it to the sweet corn fest and we slept in the yard. This year I hope to do a better job.

Anyone with a modified bike is welcome to participate all weekend or just for a day. This is a Bike Club event so consider your chopped bike your ticket to the event.

Featuring Rat Patrol Chicago, Ghetto-Fied? Rat Patrol Milwaukee? Third Circle Operations?

Man that sound slike a blast! If only I had a modified bike ready, were 20 years younger, and could still drink like a fish.

We will be happy to see you there. The Tour De Corn is a well attended and well supported ride. There are many mileage options. The short option uses a very nice paved trail that takes you from the park where this all starts...right into Springfield. About 16 mile round trip, No traffic! The other distances are 32 and 64 miles. We start early becouse it is usually HOT and HUMID! The (interurban) trail is nice and shady with a stop at the lake. I don't have any FUNNY bikes right now but I will see what I can come up with by then. Does a hot rod Raleigh Twenty count as a funny bike?
See ya There!!!:o :)
