Whose version of "Pinball Wizard" is that?

[Boondocks424]

the Yale Spizwinks. It's Yale's oldest acapella group.

Isn't this like the third time you've uploaded a preview to this year's Big Wheel race?

Not complaining. These days your lucky to get any videos at all out of Darcy!

[Boondocks424]

yes. yes it is. but we were trying to keep location, etc, under wraps till last night. the earlier videos were for event organizers who are out of town to get an idea of the road. this is the final video

Is this thing still going? I got an Entry!

AWSOME!!!!!!!

Well at least they did it here. I'm tired of hearing Lombard St. is the most crooked in the world, when it's not even the most crooked in SF. Well done on Vermont St. You need to travel to Europe for more crooked & steep streeets :).

looks so much fun.. wish they had this in Vancouver..

[CelebrateRandom]

I love the high-tech helmet-cam. :) Good work!

[chuckskisf]

I'll have some bandages!!!

LET'S BIG WHEEL!!!!!!

"Rules" are more like suggestions. You can race whatever you want, we will just make fun of you.

The rules say that rubber wheels are not allowed... why is that? There is a big wheel that I am wanting to buy and there is a rubber strip on the front wheel, but the rest of it is plastic as is the rear wheel. I don't want to be disqualified if I show up.
