yin and yang

Can't wait until this guy gets his comeuppance for doing something naughty in an airport bathroom stall.



Fortunately, however, everything that's slimy about him and his ilk is made right by the mere existence of this guy. And so balance is temporarily restored. Sure glad he wasn't around for 'stache cross.

And this is just plain brilliant. Perhaps evidence that everything is right with the world after all (courtesy of pez):
The excitement of bicycle racing returns to Allentown’s Hamilton Street on Sept. 9 with the “Tour de Brew,” a unique new event sponsored by Rodale Inc.’s Bicycling Magazine and produced by the International Cycling Center, the Lehigh Wheelmen Association and Gotham Cyclists.

This new event will feature veteran racers and rising junior racers competing in a series of road race criteriums that will be highlighted by a special mountain bike event dubbed the “Allentown Brew Works Fat-Tire Challenge,” an hour-long competition of up to 15 laps around the 900 blocks of Hamilton, Linden and Walnut streets – and on up to 10 of those laps the field of 50 “fat-tire” racers will actually pedal through the new Allentown Brew Works. Yes, that’s right – through the first floor and past the bar while spectators line up in designated safety zones to watch the riders paceline through in single file.
Check out the promo:



The lines might be a little tricky going in and out of the F&H, but we could probably make it work. The president will take it up with the boss. Surely there's a nordic-cross event that can work it in somehow.

They should run with the horse and buggy thing while the momentum is still with them.

People are talking, Washington's abuzz, let's make it happen 40 acres and a mule style people!

As the Poosher can attest, there is an annual messenger race in Regina that culminates with a ride through a bar. Naked. In October.

Shrinkage, Jerry, shrinkage!
