You know, I could get into riding a big wheel (or 2) of we were doing it in Yosemite!

Yosemite LoT BYOBW Race!!! Oh this could be interesting...

Remember- the rules state there are no rubber wheels allowed! Just the crappy plastic ones that have no traction whatsoever

You need to check out some of the "adventure parks" in Europe.

Self operated zipline rides, boat jumps and all kinds of fun.

So K! Are we finding Big Wheels and entering, or just spectating?

I'm totally game for Big Wheeling it through Yosemite! Could be even more interesting if we find an icy road.

We've arrive at the raceway! (20th and Vermont) Lots of costumed racers are getting hyped up for the start of the race at 4pm. iSm and I have a great viewing spot on curve 3- perfect to see all the way down

We'llkeep you posted!

2 heats done, waiting for 3 to start! The costumes are hilarious. Many racers have lost parts to their vehicles. There are people riding trash cans, coolers, Barbie cars, Tonka trucks, an inflatable Shamu, etc. This is insanity!!!

Are either one of you taking photos?! It sounds like a wild time!

keith - SuPeR K! · 04-12-2009, 09:02 PM

We have photos of the first heat and a full video of the second heat. You can probably find more on http://boingboing.net later this week!
