So what are you doing over Labor Day Weekend? If you have a sense of humor and haven't forgotten how to play, the good folks over at RockyPointTalk.net may have just the thing for you. Hold on to your hats for this one...
In a last moment stroke of genius, the folks at Rocky Point Talk have decided to try to put together an adult tricycle race over that weekend, with the end result to raise money to help Rocky Point's kids. Maybe start a new tradition (actually continue an old one-- read the thread) called Beers for Cheers, with grown up people racing sturdy kids' trikes for glory and charity. They're having quite a good time with it over at the forum, but they're also darned serious. Camel Toe Cantina would sponsor the event. Says Seadweller, who is doing the organizing: "I was thinking like 4 to 6 trikes to start and the bigger the better... I know my knees don't bend as well as they used too... and I'm sure if there are any extra trikes they would make some little tikes happy..."
Never heard of Tricycle Racing? Here's how they do it in San Francisco , racing down Lombard Street: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6iE9j7oECWM
