A week in pictures...
There was a ridiculous amount of biking awesomeness that happened in the past week. Though I missed out on Critical Mass and a few other things due to being on the West coast, I did get to participate in a few races and do lots of tall biking around town. They say a picture's worth a thousand words, so I'll just shut up and get to the photographic evidence of the greatness which transpired over the last seven days...
Minibikes on the half pipe was a GREAT idea
Boone looking like a badass welding up my tall bike frame
Tall biking like a pro
Quarters at the Airport house
Austin Bike Zoo's snake bike at First Night Austin '08/09
Praying Mantis bike hauling the band Pong
Short dude, tall bike!
Fixing my chain for the SECOND of four times that day, right before the Hangover Rover, got second place in the beer gut category
First and second place Hangover Rover tight pants category winners, Paul and Shannon
Brian Davies and Brent Nutting, two titans of the Austin alleycat racing community
Fabulous Friday participants, hecklers, and hangers on
The race start, a log roll down a hill to the bikes
The look of anguish on the "winner"'s face as he finished his THIRD slurpee at the final checkpoint
There are many more pictures of the weeks' festivities (including of events I missed), but if you want to see the rest I'd suggest checking out Brian Birzer's First Night Austin set, Michael's Hangover Rover set, Doug's HUGE Hangover Rover gallery, or Jamie's most recent pics in her photostream. Great stuff y'all! I had a blast.
It's so good to be back in Austin.
Keep the pictures coming!
