The race takes place during the Oak Cliff Art Crawl 2 and our “Better Block” installation/project, so it will be a great day to swing on by. If you do just want to come by and get enough coffee in your system to land you in the ER, come by for that too.
(No Columbians or Catmugs were, or will be injured during the planning and execution of this race.)
Think you can win some thangs, I heard it was your lucky year. They’ll be close to you wherever you live so do it to it!
Come out and show us how you don’t need those silly spin classes that I don’t have time for.

In an attempt to let the world know how committed they are to their footwear line, Chrome announces their Turds For Gold Shoe Exchange. For two days only, Chrome will be slinging a new pair of shoes to anyone that sends them a worn-out pair of kicks.
“There are a lot of great shoe brands out their but few, if any, are made to handle the harsh demands of riding in the city,” says Chrome Marketing Director, Matt Sharkey.
“Our shoes are built to hold up under the toughest conditions and are designed 100% to address the needs of the everyday city cyclist. Not only did we want to build a shoe that was durable and functional, but we also paid close attention to overall fit and timeless style.”
The exchange begins on Wednesday, March 17 and ends promptly the next day on Thursday, the 18th. Packages must be post marked by 3/18 to qualify and should include a return shipping address and shoe size info.
Please ship all packages to:

We were pleased to have two Bicycle Police patrolling Oak Cliff stop by and introduce themselves yesterday. Today they brought two other officers by to say hi. Thursday was the 1st day to have them here in the O.C. on bikes and so far it sounds like they enjoy being out of their cars quite a bit.
Cheaper, greener, and healthier for the city. Keeps our streets safer and more secure. Brings awareness to cycling. Hell, other than the fact that I’ll have to follow the laws a little more now, I like this. We are glad to see the city using the bikes in our hood and hope the program takes off.
