Sometimes Citybikes can be like that. Sometimes they can be wonderful. Flip a coin. Zoobomb goes every Sunday night. Off the top of my head randya and Capn iFUN! are regular Zoobombers who post on BF.

I think I've seen your bike parked here and there throughout the city.

No, I'm whimpy. And yes, there are plenty of Zoobombers who don't care about the cold and/or rain.

So, does anyone know about Team Awesome?

I see the Bike, Camera, Action spokecard in your rear wheel. Did you go to that race?! Gainesville, Florida is pretty damn far from Portland.

The search feature will help you find it when you need it. I can't use my Wonder Woman powers to stick this thread just 'cause I live in PDX.

you coming back to visit or what?

Fox writes in :
Attention denizens of Portland.
Ambassador Fox, formerly of the Land of Ports and currently stationed in the City of San Francisco, is scheduled to make a visit on the weekend before New Years, and very possibly will spend the Eve there, along with a number of other dignitaries (read: "Bike Messengers"). A race is in the works and Ambassador Fox sincerely hopes you and your cool self can participate. Whether to race, or to run a checkpoint (read: "hang out with me in a coffeeshop/ bar"), or even to heckle folks involved in either (cough, Brady), it should be aight (read: "hella tight, yo"). the race is planned to involve all four quadrants of the city, and while it will definitely NOT be as ****ed up as the 1st Annual Fox Thursday Alleycat (sorry, NeRf), it will be kinda ****ed up. I am sure you noble citizens of Portland are curious and want to know exactly HOW, but....but.... you'll just have to wait. Please RSVP so I can plan the race accordingly. With sincere hope and humble gratitude, I remain, your obedient servant. See you all soon, Fox.



hope you guys are in shape for this one, his last alleycat had us running all over the place... 13 or 14 checkpoints.
