Rides and Races - Columbus Bum Shuffle - Dec. 8 - Mark Your Calendars!

i'm ready to ride the f*'n lightning!

I'm having to skip the stuff tonight, but I'll be down tomorrow!

**** YEAH

now the precip is up to 40%

freezing rain **** yeah

bring the rain gear kiddies

oh yeah wheres the polo gonna be held? the rink by taylor tower?

Yeah, say hi to Stidle, Devolution and myself. I'm going to represent SWPA by getting lost and narrowly avoiding dying of hypothermia, then successfully dying of Colt 45 poisoning later that night.

i feel like a ****ing corpse right now, which is a good sign that things went really well. thanks for coming out, digging through dumpsters, and being real ****ing bums. america is proud.

best race ever. such a great time. I feel much more bumlier then before.

here's calling out anyone in the midwest who didn't come out -- we shuffle harder than anyone. bum life in your face. syringes and 40s, deluxe jammin'.

so who won?

****in badass michael o'shaughnessy served it up. we'll have mountains of photos soon.

not one of the locals I know of

that party was fun. i worked a checkpoint instead of racing, but it seemed like the racers had fun. only one complaint, a minor one: dude, what happened to the cripple crank racing?

Thanks for putting us up Shants. Pittsburgh had fun.

To those who I didn't formally meet; I hope I said nothing to offend you, I enjoy racing in Columbus, no matter where you are from you should come to Pittsburgh sometime. And thanks for making those magazines disappear. Enjoy.

vive le bum... had mad fun, great race and party ..... my bag stinks of skunky beer hot trash and bum farts.... i can only hope that some bum out there is living it up forties and blunts from hockin my lost phone

people were going so nuts dancing and **** that i didn't want to interrupt it and try to drag everyone outside for some organized bum racin'. we still have the bikes, which will definitely make appearances in the future.

good, nothing seemed like a better/worse (read: better) idea than total drunkenness and ****ed up bum racin'! yeah!

lost phone? aw, that sucks dude. hope you don't get screwed in the pocket cuz of that. some phone companies make it hard not to.

would have loved to have made it, but selling my bike to build another and didn't want to risk something happening to it. I'll get up to one of the races eventually.

i had fun. going over the fourth st bridge from downtown into itallian village was insane. i didnt finish because i got two flats and only brought one tube. sucks to be me.

oh and whoever got pulled over on 4th st near oldfields - hope you didnt get too ****ed by CPD

i believe the ticket was $110. straight jacked.

that gif sums up the night just about...

that, right there, is what happens when you smoke dayton weed and drink malort, jameson, and colt45.

i know a guy named blake who got that ticket.

hey, spacehippo, is that nate?

yep thats me.

err yeah blake

chase and blake are names that manage to blur in my mind

Man...I think I finally just sobered up. That race was the Sh*t!

That race inspired me to party for two straight days afterward and even miss the final cross race of the season. Thanks all of my beautiful bummy friends.

that's how we ****ing do.

Ah crap...why did I think it was this Saturday! Looked like fun guys. One question: what was the ticket for?

running a red light.

Wow, I've ran red lights before in front of cops and got away. I should be more careful me thinks.

shants!!! wheres those promised pics! I want to see some more bummery... specifically the starting pics.

My buddy took my memory card with all the start pics on it. I am trying to get them back.

aww. Thats cool though, no rush, I'm just happy nobody forgot to post em. I'd like to see them,
