I wanna do a masive foot down with everyone! i have only played with like 10 people. would be fun with 50! foot down is a big circle of riders slowly moving. as riders get stuck or stopped, you gotta put the foot down and your out. the best riders can bunnyhop in circles, push people over, grab others bars, seats, whatever it takes to be king!
we need an mc for this thang. ref, mc, judges. can you help out? let me know. also if your selling parts, I have a few tables, and this massive black mesh we can lay parts out on. also, if you get too caught up in the events, we can lock up parts inside. what else???

Think were gonna add a new category. you can win drunk. best bike. get a ribbon from the taco truck and tie it on your fave bike. most ribbons gets sweet retirement!
hah this sounds really fun. I'm definitely coming and bringing a serious desire to win the skid competition. I'm new to the city and I haven't met to many bike nerds. Can't wait!
p.s. what the hell is track stand boxing? Does this mean there won't be a regular track stand comp?

PS NOT STOLEN

It shouldnt matter where the stem is mounted. The handlebars are still rotating around the axis at the center of the the head tube. Your grip and your motion would still be the same relative to the headtube. I bet it even clamps onto the bars a little bit off center too! Originally Posted by fixedstep

How was the hooligan thingy? I almost completely wasted this awesome day, but atleast i got my new BB installed! sweetness!
Slower than you
The cops showed up about an hour after we got there. I guess they moved it over to 3rd and army, but my wife and I, along with Ostro, Sillygirl, 46x17, Koshi, and The Loin headed over to GG park where we sat around and drank beers for a few hours...
The picnic was alright though, not much swapping going on, but there were some people doing some nice tricks, 360 skids, backwards riding for days, no handed wheelies, etc..

You missed the whole thang! The cops did not play nice, so we moved over to the 3rd and army skate spot. it ended up being a better location, and the race over helped loose some of the rif-raf. then the next 4 hours were non-stop. I will post results tomorrow, as well as tons of video clips as I edit them. everyone, I appoligize for the swap ending soon. ZO brought a ton of parts and frames to the second location, as well as 4$ keiren posters from japan. nice! There were 3 sprints races. 2 that were one lap, and 1 that was 5 laps. nottightpants drafted james 4 laps then took him on the last straight. The freestyle event turned into an expression session for like 10 minutes, and nutty thangs went down! what was your favorite? longest skid went to james for a block and a half. dang i'm tired, and sunburned. will do this tomorrow.. sorry
