"You're Not Worthy" Ride
Ash has been running/a part of this ride for as long as I've known him, which is a couple years. This isn't one of those social rides; it's an enduring century that takes you from LA to Escondido with a sweet reward of attending the Stone Brewery.
Here are the details, but check their Facebook event as well.

Sidenote: When I first started track racing this season, I met Alex Farioletti. If any of you are familiar with ThrownBlown and all his go pro videos of track racing, this' the guy.
Alex, as well as all track racers I've met this year, seem to find the best youtube videos ever. Here's the latest and greatest. Check it out MEOW.

Clancy moves to Portland
Just found out a friend, Clancy, moved up to Portland and started working at Western Bike Works. I was wondering where he went after a long period of not seeing him at Pedal Rev. Look, you can even see him and his signature hat in the warehouse.
Congrats on the move, brother! I'll have to stop by soon!

3Rensho

Here's a short film JB Davis of WOB made while on the job. Wait, weren't you supposed to be working?
Luthianian Mayor Smash.
A Lithuanian Mayor gets serious about parking in the bike lane…
Yes, this is staged, but this is still awesome that they would allocate funds to use an APC to run over a Mercedes. And how did this come about? Frustrated citizens wrote to the Mayor and he took action. No politics, no frills, just a very bold statement. Thank you, Mayor Zuoka.

Blacks & Bikes (Not trying to be racist)
When most people think of cyclist, they imagine the average person to be white. Well one group of cyclist is trying to change that. National Brotherhood of Cyclist recently made news when they showed up to the church to receive a blessing at Cathedral of Christ the Light sponsored by the group. Their aim was to promote health and exercise to combat obesity, diabetes, and high blood pressure.http://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gif The group ihttp://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gifs admirable in their aims, but they’re not the only group who made news recently. Black females in DC have been standing up to advocate cycling in the black community.
Veronica Davis is part of Black Women Bike DC who started off with only 6 members, but is up to 60.
Kinda weird I want to write about this, but it’s just as important as any other bicycle related topic. Now I'm gonna go away and think about this some more...

Lil' Tuffy designs Outside Lands Poster
SF known Lil' Tuffy designed this year's Outside Lands poster. I'm way more excited for the poster than the actual show. If you do come up to The City during this event, stop by his bar, Pop's bar, that's also pretty awesome.
This is a Queer...
This photo reminds me of what a wild weekend is. Thanks, Crihs Srihs, for getting around to developing this roll.
