GET YOUR ZOOBOMB ON!!!!!!!!!!! ;-0

image
LOL, OK, I have learned a NEW word and a rather WILD event it’s titled after! ZOOBOMB! Quoting From Wikipedia: Zoobomb  is a weekly bicycling activity in Portland, Oregon, United States during which participants ride bicycles rapidly downhill. Zoobomb began in Fall of 2002.
Participants carry their bikes on MAX Light Rail to the Washington Park station next to the Oregon Zoo. From there, participants take the elevator to the surface and then ride their bikes down the hills in the vicinity. This process is often repeated several times throughout the night.
There is an emphasis on unusual bicycles, first and foremost the children's bicycles or "minibikes," but extending to tall bikes, swing bikes, choppers, non-functional bicycles, etc. Though many riders bring their own bicycles, the participants maintain a "Zoobomb pile". This is a sculptural tower of minibikes anchored to a bicycle rack at the Zoobomb meeting point. These are spare bikes that are used as loaners for would-be Zoobombers who don't have their own bike. The pile has become a local landmark. This organization even has their own website geared for ZOOBOMBING!

BREAKING News! * RAAM / Recumbent participant Maria Parker support van rear-ended by SCUMBAG IDIOT, TEXTING!

ScreenShot02

Admittedly, I have not been following RAAM as I normally do; but I do check in at BROL’s RAAM post and also at Facebook’s posting as well, from time to time. It appears our Super Female Recumbent Diva, RAAM participant Maria Parker; her support vehicle, was rear-ended by some PATHETIC Human jerkoff, texting, when they should have been DRIVING! Steaming mad The story has gone up and down, with the team being out of RAAM and now they are apparently back in the race. You can follow this SUPER event by the links in my post here. Thumbs up

Breaking News! Another model, BITES the dust… :-(((

imageFrom the BROL front page: “Bacchetta Strada DiscontinuedSad smileAfter over ten years in production, Bacchetta has discontinued the Strada. It can easily be argued that the Strada is the bike that put the highracer format on the map when it was first released as one of Bacchetta’s first two models. However, its steel frame and 650C wheels both fell out of fashion with a lot of performance riders and sales have dwindled over the years. Most of those sales have recently gone to Bacchetta’s own Corsa and Giro 26 models. The company therefore decided not to redesign the Strada for 700C wheels. Wilted roseBacchetta still lists the bike on their site since there are still some on dealer floors. Act fast if you’ve been wanting one! Fair thee well, old friend!” Crying face
