I Hope You're getting ready.

Just like the Big Wheel Biker Gang.

Thanks Metromix!

Just a quick thank you to Metromix.com for listing the pub crawl!

I want this...

By far, the coolest Big Wheel I've seen, This is the Trek Mod. If someone shows up with one of these, I need to take it for a spin.

Questions

With our fantastic street team (ha) we were out passing flyers last night and I received a few question about the crawl.

Do I really have to have a big wheel? No, but you wont be nearly as cool as the people riding them and you're going to eventually get jealous and steal one.

Does my ride have to be a big wheel? No, bring whatever you'll look stupid on. Someone actually asked if they could bring a Roller Racer....I dream of riding the Roller Racer if she shows up with it.

Will there be drink specials? Yes!! after yesterday's events, we do have some wonderful bars willing to give us specials.

What's wrong with you? Ah, the age old question...I still dont have an answer for this one. I still smell like ketchup

Reminder

Early Registration ends May 2nd, so to guarantee a shirt and all the laughs, register soon! Wow, its almost April already.

T-Shirt Design, first draft...

So here's the first proposed Front for the Tee, let me know if you'll wear this. Please comment in the comment section
Here's what I've got for the back, hope you like and I know the bottom is off center, but I would shrink it down a little so it would be in the bottom right corner. (I do know a bit about tees, but no clue what you people would want)

If you click on any of the images it will show you a larger size. Seriously be honest, let me know what you think. Thanks!

First test run...

Traction is key, and we are just getting to big for these little bikes. I highly recommend do the tire modification that is described on the Big Wheel Rally site. Its quick, and cheap and super easy to do. And with the crawl less than 2 months away, start looking for some rides. Later, yo!

Need a Ride?

So, with some help from the Captain at the Big Wheel Rally, you can order your Big Wheel from him them $5 off!!! Use the coupon code "ChuckRox" (sweet, eh?). You can order from the site at bigwheelrally.com I've also put up a link to that site and the Big Wheel Biker Gang on the right side of the page. Looks like the Gang might be showing up to the crawl and LADIES, they are looking for a Top Model for the gang, so applicants can check out their site at Bigwheelbikergang.com. Ok, Well, I should get some sleep, I'm still down in sunny Florida on vacation. I'll see you all back in Chicago.

Sweet ride

Dick's Sporting Goods carries the Huffy Green Machine, so cool. You can check it out by clicking HERE.

Big Wheel Tip #1

A padded seat is key. We tested this over the weekend with a pillow on the seat and it was so much better for the kneeling kick/push technique and it keeps your butt from rubbing on the sides of the wheels. Use a small pillow or maybe a seat cushion or something, this will help a lot. There was also the suggestion of having a best Costume contest to go along with best ride, this would be hilarious. So go for it!
