Here is a pic of my baby brother(left) and my buddy Opie(right) at an event which was just side events this was called Texas Twins, their feet are tied together and the raced around a course. We has tallbike jousting, best trick, wheel toss, frame toss, bike obstacle course and a whole lot more.
meh, not a real roller party unless youre completely on the rollers, relying on your balance plus two drunk teammates, without the fork locked down, and are also chugging beers to see who is fastest.
*none of those ppl are me, but i participated, consumed 9 in about 5 minutes, and forgot everything else.

we have a thing called “U-bomb” where everyone meets downtown then takes the train up the hill (about 2.5 miles)
then they bomb back down into the city. its intense, full face helmets required ha
Do ya’ll remember the days when people raced their bikes outside and the winner was not the person who could drink the most?
Sorry, I’m just a little surly from dealing with the organization of the upcoming race in Bangkok. But I really do feel that races have become a lot less about bikes and a lot more about having an excuse to drink. I guess thats just what happens when a subculture gets popular.

beer after a race =
beer during a race =
