We thought some in this group might be interested in bike smut!

Sunday November 8th--5:30-7:30 pm
@ The Guild!

Bike Smut 3
"Sex + bicycles = liberation"

Featuring Bike Porn 3: Cycle Bound & a live performance.

Featuring:

"What the heck is bike porn?", you may ask. Rather than spoil the fun with details, here are the reactions of people who have seen it for themselves:

* The films were a shout out to sex positive culture, dirty little sluts, consent, and safe sex… phew, that shit was HAWT!
* FanFUCKINtastic! Great job to all the film makers. Loved the humor and creative people.
* Oh Hell yeah! We had a blast. Each film was exciting and eye grabbing! Thanks to all you adventurous bike pornographers - you were awesome.
* The best thing I have ever seen at the movies in my life!

Sounds like a fun, naughty, sexy time for all! Add to the mix a live performance from the Bike Smut crew, and it's bound to be one of the highlights of the festival!

I know this could be a great ride. We could do mustache and most stylish prizes. I need to find people interested in some designing posters and with some experience organizing events. Maybe the Saturday night poker run would be a good place to start?

No way! One of my friends in London did the tweed ride out there. It was totally great, posh and stylish. I'll have to work on waxing my mustachio into a curled frenzy, though...

Anybody interested in organizing the 1st annual Albuquerque Tweed run? I set up a group for it here: http://www.dukecityfix.com/group/1stalbuquerqueannualtweedrun

If you want to know more about this stylish and fun event check this out: www.tweedrun.com

JJG, just a suggestion, but the trails which go across the foothills tend to be easier than those which go up towards the mountains. If you get into a rough spot, just walk around it. I really like it up there. Also, there are some nice areas west of Santa Fe near the Rio Grande. Enjoy.
bonnie Comment by bonnie on September 14, 2009 at 7:12am
JJG, there are many different trails in the foothills, some of which are very easy, some of which are very hard. Try starting in the northern foothills, near Elena Gallegos Open Space where the trails are smoother. Also, try some of the trails in the bosque. There are trails which run all the way from Rio Bravo in the S. Valley up to Corralles.
Check out Two Wheel Drive for some excellent maps for easier trails which can keep you exploring without getting lost.
Good luck, have fun, and keep the rubber side down!
Wade Patterson Comment by Wade Patterson on September 2, 2009 at 12:07pm
I am looking to replace my son's bike which was stolen from our garage last week. He's about to be 9.

One thing I have had the hardest time figuring out is where are all the used bikes are sold in town. I figure there must be a plethora of used kids bikes out there aand I would like to avoid buying something from KMart, Walmart Target or Sears.

So, anyone know where to buy reasonably priced used bikes in town? I'm not looking for fancy here, just functional and pre-owned. I have scoured craigslist and been to a few thrift stores, but nothing in the past week and I don't have a lot of time to visit pawn shops and thrift stores unless I KNOW they have some selection.

Thanks for any advice!

Does anyone frequent Bikes + (read: Bikes Plus) on Holly Ave NE? I went in there to pick up a bike map and the two guys in there were very friendly and helpful. The shop isn't the closest to my location (Northeast Cyclery wins there, I think), but my loyalties have never been predicated by distance. Anyone have experience there, good or bad?
Benny the Icepick Comment by Benny the Icepick on May 17, 2009 at 7:51pm
Brian, in my opinion, Two Wheel Drive and the Bike Coop have the best wrenches in town. Fast, effective, patient, and affordable.
