On October 9th, 2004, the TrackBikeTerror Crew is hosting the 1st annual Terror Trials here in Chicago. It is an invitational alleycat and will feature a main alleycat race, skids, stands, backwards circles and a slalom course. There will be prizes, with messenger and posenger categories. Track bikes and brakeless fixed gears only. Email trackbiketerror@hotmail.com for more info.

I'm there. Make sure to post another reminder a week or two before the actual event, though.

does this mean we're invited?

if you have no brakes, yes.

hey Cyclorat, did you take second in the Saturday night Alleycat in the rain???? You ride the silver Miyata?

the white miyata. with the silver drop bars and the golden cranks. its on fixedgeargallery here

yep, second place, first fixie on the lakefront opener! but it barely dirizzled, most of the race was dry. we raced in some muddy ruts tho.

i got wet coming home.

Was that you at the cargo race, then? Or were there multiple gold Campy cranks there yesterday? I remember seeing one, but I don't remember what the rest of the bike looked like or for that matter who was riding it. I need to start paying better attention...

there were multiple. 2, that is. this one kid rides a battleship pista with a golden drive side and a silver non drive side.

i didnt do the cargo race sunday
