Yes, Port Townsend, Washington, (near Seattle) first weekend of October.

[Fufa]

Looks like there are pictures of many of the entries on this Flicker album:

Damn kinetics will outlive us all

This was the 44th annual race, so it is a pretty well established sport, yes. Next race Klamath Falls June 23-24, then Corvallis July 21-22. Also Longmont, Colorado, July 21.

I actually mean the pedalers.

[Elliot]

But of course! Physical activity is good for us! (Should we label that a newsflash? )

[Ugly Dougly]

We're going back to Pilates tonight!

I'll be down Corvallis on the 21st to point and laugh @ the sand pit..You will be seeing a new leaner meaner me.. 12lb from Apr 1,.. Having all the teeth yanked and replac ed helped.. Now water buffalo steak for a while..

[Elliot]

I'll have you know I conquered that sand dune a couple of years ago on the Pear County Chopper trike! Kinetic Sculpture Racing is great fun AND good exercise at the same time.

Wow. Where do you get that from?

[gyre]

Mostly water buffalo

[theCryptofishist]

I had a cookie...I was doing fairly well...

[mgb327]

In the form of what we call a "steak".

[Ugly Dougly]

Mostly water buffalo

That's the first place I would look.

Is it necessary to go to Rangoon for such a delicacy?

[FIGJAM]

Do you gig um like frogs?

There's always Italy. Somebody must be producing the milk for the mozerella.

It's a damn type o. With new false china clippers. "No water buffalo steak for me for awhile"..

just discovered this thread, jumping in to motivate/guilt/shame myself into getting more exercize.
Backstory: Cut Caffeine in May 2011, alcohol in July. Went vegan late september/early october 2011 and dropped a mens pant size (women's sizes are fickle and vain, I'm a 12/14/16 depending on who I'm wearing. Men's I'm down to a 34) Added in Dance Dance Revolution on standard-heavy for 15-60 minutes a day as exercise in December and dropped another size by February. Hit a plateau a few months back and have been slacking on the exercise too of late. I'd like to walk/run/jog, but I live in an area where I don't feel safe walking two blocks to get groceries for fear of regular street harassment (I walk anyway) I'm tentatively considering roller derby cause its a badass empowering kind of sport and I could use a dose of aggressive feminism. My local derby team has a bout Saturday evening so I'm gonna try to make it there and then maybe find a rink and skate on sunday if I think it looks fun. If not, there's always more DDR...

[gyre]

Carry a gun like the rest of us.

Go where you want.

[theCryptofishist]

If not, there's always more DDR...

Ah. Great slogan for Apokaliptika!

[Straightveg]

Carry a gun like the rest of us.

Go where you want.

That's the plan, eventually. I've got the permit in hand, but selecting a gun and method of concealment is where I'm stuck. I'm not planning on carrying till I'm competent and confident with whatever weapon I choose, have a gun safe for storage at home, and know my state and local laws inside and out. In the meantime, I've got pepper spray on my keyring.

[gyre]

For light weight, you can't beat a Keltec 380.
About half the power of a 9mm though.

I strongly recommend the Pepperblaster.
I don't think it has competition.

Chime in on one of the gun threads if you have questions.

Indeed, that man is The Workout the World Forgot.

[Ugly Dougly]

I can see you doing this, in my mind's eye.

[Savannah]

I can swim that well, but I'm clearly outclassed when it comes to carrying trees.

[Ugly Dougly]

Okay, you handle the water sports and I will handle the log.

That don't sound quite right, do it?
