ruining my wheels? feeling like i’m going to be riding on ice? no thanks…
Seriously- is this for real? I’ve seen homeless guys ride their trikes without tires down here, but even that looks ill-advised. At the very least.
we’re serious. it’s not like we are asking people to run tireless on their deep v’s or zipp wheels. we will be using old junked bikes, a viking funeral of sorts for old bikes / rims.
were not asking anyone to go any farther than a block or two. plus it’s totally voluntary.
there is also a traditional alleycat style race, footdown, skids and trackstand competitions for those who enjoy riding on tires.
ill-advised is what we are all about. don’t want to do it, don’t show up.
seacrest out!
