Queer Bike Gang presents the Cirque Du So Gay

According to their myspace page, they're "Totally gay for biking." We approve.

I met the organizer Sat night at the race after party; my comment about resolution stands even more so in digital format.

Babes in Bikeland III

No fewer than 162 racers showed up for what can be only described as an event of monumental proportions, the third annual Babes in Bikeland Alleycat.

Jana schooled the field with a first place finish, turning her complete manifest in at around 7:20pm


3rd and 2nd go to Amy C. and Alicia, respectively


Ashley takes 4th


While Dr. Lee rounds out the top 5


Raise your hand if this is your first race


Kudos to race organizers Chelsea and Kayla...


and of course to new (again) dad Gene-O, for the race finish locale


Hats off to Kelly Mac, who not only came in with a top 10 16th place finish, but also ran a half marathon the same morning. Dang.

If you're female and ride a bike, you owe it to yourself to participate in this event next year. Out of the dozens of racers I talked to, all of them had a blast.
