2006 Baltimore Ghetto Blaster, Yo.
 

17 Check Points through the worst parts of Baltimore. (It ain't called Ghetto Blaster for nothing)
25+ miles.
1 pitbull dog fight.
1 horse.
30 riders lost after CP #1.
1 rider shot in the eye.
Several riders assulted by locals.
1 rider arrested at a CP (and will likely be in Central Booking in Baltimore 'till Tuesday)

...and that was during the race.

It was a Blast, yo.

Flick it

rider shot in the eye?

explain please

yeah, with a paintball ....

congratz on 1st grl .... i wanna steal ur bag :rolleyes:

but really, i do :D

actually i belive two people were shot in the face

no one in the eye, but one got pretty close. Also, my group got one of those orange traffic barrels thrown at us by a big gang of teenagers, hitting one rider but luckily failing to take him completely down.

last night=fun as *****!

...aside from the heartburn.

Yeah, it was fun for me, too.

Maggie Moores will never be the same again! Remember the looks on those peoples faces when they came in for a nice quiet dinner and saw all of the bikers! They were like, "WTF?!?!"

bummer i broke my chain 5 cps in

bukkake?

Y'all rode in the daylight? Wusses.

my friend tommy was one of the two to get shot near the eye, wish I could have raced, but I had prior obligations. From what I heard about it, that **** was nuts.

Tommy was right behind me when he was shot. I hear "whoo man, i'm shot".
Paintballs at the checkpoint. Luckily, we were each some 80 ounces into Naty Boh so he wasn't to bad.

The after party was pretty highlarious. We brought the ghetto to this fancy restaurant/bar.
If anyone found my camera in the bar, i lost a few guinness in. If you know Andy's number, pm me it. Thanks.

I think my favorite part of the race was rolling past a hospital and seeing a guy in a gown and a wheelchair smoking a cigarette on the corner.

ps. http://www.demoncats.com will have more pics up hopefully soonish. I can't remember the guys name, but i see him at every race. He is a super nice guy.
[edit] Kevin is his name i think.

Oh yeah, one more thing. Tommy got mauled in the pitbull fit. Luckily he carries neo-sporine in case of such an attack.

Not sure. But, I didn't hang around for the after-after party.

Yeah, but it doesn't matter in B'More Believe it or not, it's scarrier to actually SEE the hood you are riding through in the daylight.

**** and i thought the ghetto of asbury park was bad. you got some high tech teenagers with paintball guns? we just have 8 year old with automatic pistols and bloods vengance gangland killings that don't get reported in the paper for fear the tourist industry might be affected.

paintball was part of the race; teenagers throwing large objects was not.

from what i hear, the b-more/dc chapters of the triple crown were ****ing psycho, and richmond was tame and boring. thankfully it (richmond chapter) was my first alleycat and i had a ****ing blast.

when did this become some kind of contest?

being stoked about your town being more dangerous is a bit rediculous. I live in baltimore, north of where the race was held, last night I heard roughly 5 gun shots, didn't make me proud. I want to move.

well you need to change yo' attitude. Get rich or die mutha****ing tryin'. Since most of us ain't gettin rich, we gots to move someplace where we could actually die tryin. Thats the ****ing bargain, thats the competition

Ah Fo-Real?

damn dustin where do you live?

If paintball was part of the race, why were they shooting for the head? That is ****ed up, and anyone who would do such a thing is a piece of ****.
