To many people the 60 mile trek to Lawrence wouldn't be that big of a deal, but to two people who hardly ever break the 30 mile marker, it's damn near winning the war on drugs. I rode the trusty SS Cross Check while Woody set out on a brakeless fixie with slick tires and 30lbs of crap in his shoulder bag. One thunderstorm, 3 detours, 9 miles of gravel road, and a whole bottle of sunscreen later we reach Lawrence to enjoy the fruits of our labor. Here's some damn photos.....
and Woods wrecked a few times along the way. Can you find the Fuck You Cupcake? Very fun trip and would like to do it again here soon. Let me know if you're interested in coming: kcsprints@gmail.com

You drive a Smart Car, here's a sticker........
Friday began with the usual....
And then ended with the usual.....
But in between those points a group of us managed to get some riding in. I started the week off with 250 "I (heart) Oil Spills" stickers, 4 days later they are all spent. We rode a relatively short path from Westport to the River Market with major stops at every gas station, house party, bar district, and large vehicle along the way...
Good times good times. You can find all of my photos from the weekend here
Saturday was also interesting. I just so happened along on my way to an afternoon kegger with the HellKat Hustle folks....
when I stumbled across the first every National Smart Car rally. Apparently people who drive Smart Cars don't understand the tongue in cheek aspect of receiving an "I (heart) Oil Spills" sticker from a guy riding a bicycle. I turned out to be the most hated person there...
Ah well.
I've ordered 500 more stickers and will pass them out to you fine folks as soon as they arrive.
This upcoming Saturday we're riding to Lawrence for a night of frivolity. Anyone who would care to join can meet at my house (3619 Walnut, KCMO 64111) at 10am. Hope to see you all out.

How mad are you?
Stickers are being made and once they're here will do a bit of riding posting these up on some local gas stations in the Kansas City area. If you would like the file to make your own I can send you all the information from where I had them made, just contact me at kcsprints@gmail.com.
