THE Palouse
Yesterday was the Tempe Tour de Fat. I started the day leaving my house at around 9am. It's about 12 miles to the park where the party was going to be and as I'm cruising along I picked up a couple of buddies along the way. We rode through ASU campus and met up with some friends who were tailgating for the football game. Had a couple brews, played some cornhole, and continued on to the park.


We got there around 11am, just in time for the "parade" which was more like a critical mass.




My buddies Rhino & Tom.




This kid's bike was hilarious!




That's a bike mailbox. I want one...


They estimated about 2000 people at this thing.


Check out the parrot chillin' on this guys' handlebars.


Rhino's visor he made the night before.


I think this was Stinkyboy. :shocked:


Tom & Rhino


I had a devil's tail and horns, which I was really proud of!


Us drinking at the bar afterwards. I don't know why I was looking so serious...

I don't think we got home 'till around 10pm; that makes for a long day of drinking. I actually fell on the ride back and dropped my chain which, somehow, folded over. Couldn't fix the damn thing until I was sober this morning. Oh brother...

I see a lot of kids not wearing helmets. You would think it would be mandatory for any event for legal purposes. Does AZ not have helmet laws for minor?

Dude, I still have a rash!

I was rolling the dual drive single speed and Jesse from Brodie was cool enough to let us hang out in the Brodie tent and flirt with his hot girlfriend.

I have some footage I'll sort through this weekend to see if there's anything SFW to post.

:cheers:
