Cranksgiving! Finally, a charity race where ALL the $$ goes to direct action. The Homeless Action Committee (http://www.homelessaction.com/) are the ONLY organization I see out on the streets doing work night after night, so it's only right that they get our support. You WILL NEED a lock and a bag for this one.

As always, we shall be ending at my favorite little corner bar with cheap eats and plentiful beer.

Ride any uni or bike or trike you like; as long as it's got wheels and pedals and is you-powered, it's all good. You will not be turned away for excess spandex or your lack of white belts.

Entry fee gets you a neato handmade spoke card and a shot at being the baddest ass in the Capital Region.

Pre-registration via email to soze@fork-bomb.com is encouraged for planning purposes. Dear god help me make a better guess at how many of these damn cards I gotta make.

PS - please don't get me arrested.
