A Saturday

So Will the G and I decided to check out the Downtown Columbia Tri on Saturday. We didn't know anyone racing but since neither of us had anything going on (except our own riding and Criterium International viewing) and it being such a nice day we decided to check it out. I must admit I did not expect to see such a large turn out given Columbia bicycle unfriendliness and general obesity but over 300 peeps showed up for this thing.

Mad props to the guy who rode this thing...

and to this guy...
Afterward we went on our rides, viewed Criterium International and then decided to checkout the Black Bird Bicycle Co-op House Show Fundraiser. The Black Bird kids apparently decided to have some bands play at a house and ask for donations to help the co-op. Will and I scrapped together a few neglected wheels and some rarely used tools to donate and gain admission.
pretty interesting Saturday to say the least...
