This is your annual opportunity to get your legs around some one/thing gentle, powerful and loving!
some are more open to public and pubic display than others
You may not have even known that we have an International Fisting Day. Its understandable, this is only the second year we have been able to observe this handy holiday. But your ignorance is more than understandable, its expected. If you make a porn with fisting you wont be able to find a distributor who will sell your DVD. It all goes back to an obscure list of codes from decades ago, most of which is ignored with a few notable exceptions:
We NEED to see this activity, not only to
support gay, bi & queer sexualities and the acts therein but also to
show heterosexuals that it is an amazingly intimate, fun and ok act! We
can watch two or more dicks in a pussy plus a plug in the ass and
another dick in the mouth but we cant watch a hand in the bush?
At fistingday.tumblr.com you can see and learn more about this depraved act of slow, gentle loving that is routinely censored
from your porn by distributors who claim they could be subject to fines associated with obscenity laws, even while they proudly promote movies depicting most if not all the non-fisting taboos from the list above. Yeesh!
After Chicago we drove to Detroit, making one stop along the way for a picnic. The drive wasn't at all that long, but by the time we got to the city we were exhausted. I don't know if any one has ever told you, but Detroit has insanely bumpy roads. That plus the fact that I had a rusty quick release culminated on my front wheel popping of as we were trying to find the apartment it was a cute, small apartment with two bedrooms. Luckily we had the place to ourselves as a friend of a friend was out of state. It was nice sleeping in a bad by myself for the first time in weeks.
The Hub Bicycle Co-op
The next morning we went to The Hub bike community bicycle repair shop to replace my front wheel. After some general bike maintenance and wheel replacing we rode over to a local pub for a lunch of sandwiches. Later in the evening we met up with Amy Snell a previous bike pornographer who had made one of my favorite films last year. It was like meeting bike porn royalty, and we all went for drinks at a bar called The Bronx. There was an amazing, eccentric old lady working there who said fuck or shit after almost every other word, I so badly wanted her to join us for drinks, but alas, she had to work. After the bar, Poppy decided to make us some dinner, so we stopped by a grocery store to pick up supplies. The meal was delicious, and I happily started on the dishes. Unfortunately, thats when the night took a turn for the worse... or the more hilarious depending on how you look at it. I accidentally pepper sprayed the kitchen wall. I know what you are thinking and no I was not drunk or stoned. It was a total freak accident that ended up as being completely okay since the girl who's apartment we were staying in had previously pepper sprayed Amy Snell's kitchen ceiling. So in the end we just ended up laughing about it a lot.

The next day we went over to Amy's house and hung out there for a bit. After spending some time at Amy's drinking coffee and baileys, smoking cigarettes out the window and using her Internet (huzzah) we took of to the Cass city cinema where we were to have our show that night. We dropped of our stuff and left the van there as we took of for a bike ride. The night of our show also happened to be the same night as Dlectriciy, Detroits new nighttime, contemporary light and art festival. There was a bike ride where everyone light up the night with their many bikes lights and we rode around. Such a blast! We handed out flyers then headed of to the show to start setting up. The show went well and we gave away a couple of free sexy movies and vibrators to audience members who answered questions about the movies correctly. After the show a small group of us, including an old friend of mine who drove up all the way from Cleveland, Ohio, went to a party in a retro hip recycling plant. There were five bands playing, a smog machine, fun lights and some cute hipsters. Since it was cold I spent the majority of the night standing around the burn barrel but danced away the cold when this awesome punk band went on.

Abandoned blue house
The next day was one of my favorites of the tour so far. We had a late morning with a home cooked breakfast and brass monkeys. Around two in the afternoon Amy, Rev, Poppy, Mark Fancy Pants and I rode of into Detroit on our bicycles. We took a lovely route through the city past some incredible street art and abandoned buildings. Our first stop of the day was to heidelberg street. Twenty six years ago a gentleman named Tyree Guyton founded the project by taking to the houses with a paint brush and a ton of cuddly toys. He transformed the street into a breathtaking art project by painting the houses and creating sculptures from ordinary every day house essentials. He also used cuddly toys, shopping carts, shoes (lots of shoes!) and a boat! The whole thing was quite breathtaking. Here are some shots taken at Heidelberg street.
After Heidelberg street we took of on our bikes once again to explore more of the city. This time it was to an old abandoned Packard car plant. Gigantic dark stone buildings towered over us and broken glass and other debris littered the ground around our feet. We found a deserted hallway in one of the buildings to lock up our bikes in and proceeded to adventure throughout the multiple buildings. Fancy Pants still had a 40 of beer left over so we drank it as we climbed up to the top of the tallest building. Our goal was to eventually throw the empty bottle of the roof. It took some searching, but we finally found the stairs that led us to the roof. After exploring for a bit the sun started to set so we descended from what felt like the top of the world. We took five minuets to gander around an underground tunnel that was blacker the black when we turned of our flashlights, then we got back on our bikes and rode back in the direction of home.

This was at the end of a dark tunnel, almost pissed my pants when I saw it.
On the way back, Amy remembered that some of her friends were having a BBQ at their work so we stopped by to meet some more people and hopefully eat some delicious food. And we did that exactly! There was music, beer and AMAZING BBQ pulled pork. We met a few new friends, had some of them ride the tall bike. After a few hours we decided to head out to the karaoke bar down the street, which we did. We sang along, drank a few more drinks and finally headed back home for some well needed rest. The next night we went to another bar where we met up with the end of a group ride. It was another fun and lovely night spent in Detroit. After spending almost a week hanging out it was time to hit the road again. This time it was to Canada! So we left in the early afternoon to begin our journey in the land of poutine, hockey and maple syrup!
Here are some more photos that I thought deserved to be in this post, Detroit was so beautiful I couldn't resist to post almost all the pictures I took!
Awesome lighter that was gifted on our last night.
From plentiful beer to hawt biker girls dancing in the streets to tall bike wrestle/jousting to not possibly not waking up in someone's puke at dawn, the Dead Baby Downhill has a lot of things going for it! We are proud to see so many of our friends taking part and making it better.
Seattle can be a little stuffy for a Northwest city so its great to get them to get down and dirty for a spell.
Join us next time the 1st Friday of August in 2013!
Just yesterday while talking about better sex and better transportation someone noted that Tall Bike Jousting might be the most violent, masculine sign of physical bike sexual domination yet devised.
If that is true your opportunity to witness the finest Cascadian tall bike jousters in action is happening soon!
Seattle hosts the 16th annual Dead Baby Downhill including a messenger challenge and a massive group ride into what has been dubbed as "The Greatest Party Known To Humankind" in Georgetown. This could be the last time the party is able to be held in G-town, because they have been throwing this greatest party every 1st Friday of August for almost two decades now and there are some downsides to having a few thousand bike punks raging in the streets until dawn.
The Orgasm Trails continues south to the land where tall bikes went from amusingly tall to "OMG that might kill us all" Tall.
Located just outside Asheville, NC, Warren Wilson College is notable for more than just having insane tall bikes and pornographers being one of the few colleges in the United States that requires on-campus students to work for the institution in order to graduate. This can be done in a variety of ways. Consider "servicing" the community this Thursday night!
Asheville Thursday Nov 10th Preston House From Warren Wilson Road turn right at the Chapel on North

Bike Smut has played nice for too long. It's time to get dirty. Alcohol, fire, fisticuffs, abrasive music, smelly dreadlocks, welding, Malthusian competitions, bicycles and pornography. A weekend of hardcore action in Warsaw at the Bike Punk Fest.
Bike Smut starts moshing at 20.00 this Thursday at the Elba squat (Elbląskiej 9/11), and then gets back at it again on Friday night at the Syrena squat (ul. Wilcza 30) downtown after Critical Mess. Oi!

The ubombers at SaltCycle.com made a video of the Bike Porn weekend in Salt Lake City. The first half is pictures from the Minibike Escola, where adults prevent kids from using their playground for hours. We personally asked a little girl to be escorted off the park by Officer Tallbike (also pictured).
It also shows the warehouse where 150 sexy bikers showed up for the screening. As well as the gold sprints, which dominated the rest of the night.
Salt Lake City must have been well primed for the bike love, we already have had 2 promises of bikexploitation videos made from them! Get your submissions in soon.
Richmond, VA (RVA) is a pretty amazing place. You have a blend of Art students honing the craft at the highly toted Virgina Commonwealth University, the shadow of the Confederacy in the form of massive statues of General Lee and Stonewall Jackson, the depression of the 80s grinding development to a halt, and tons of fun loving bikers enjoying the cheap rent.
Development and gentrification have come to the Oregon Hill neighborhood of RVA, which two years ago was a verifiable bicycle ghetto, with all sorts of characters drinking on the tightly spaced porches basking in the sun.
Some things have changed, but there is still one bike club in town inspiring others from across the east to rally and display their pride. Bike clubs in Dayton, NYC, Atlanta, Chicago and more all represented .
Portland, Oregon's Zoobomb came, saw, and dropped the competition like it drops its pants. Zoobomb took the only prize for the team oriented competition. Placing in every event except the 6 pack relay (we are only a little embarrassed about this). Solid performances the entire day capped off by a strange award party and news broadcast about the awesomness that has just ended. Conveniently enough their massive 6-ft trophy for 1st place was designed(?) to collapse into a medium sized bag. Im sure the Dropout Bike Club from Portland will take the challenge of reconstructing it without trying to blend steel and aluminum
Here is video of the final bout, a chariot race. Sounds simple right? Right?
right...
We want to thank all the great hosts, and we hope to get kicked out of more parties again someday.
Here is a link with lots of videos. http://www.truveo.com/tag/slaughterama
And now the tour rolls on to Chapel Hill! If the hundreds that turned out in Richmond screaming for more bike porn are any sign of the future the south is more ready for sexy bike culture than many concerned parties realize.

Come on out and enjoy the sexy bike action tonight!
So I am showing some porn. you may already know that (i hope). But I am also joining a bike tour North to Vanocuver BC. That means riding our bikes from 100s of miles into the wind (likely).
It is absurd and wonderful and so are the people coming with me. For example, one of our members is riding his tall bike on the tour. His reasoning: "It is my only bike with gears"
aint that cute? totally practical.
naturally there is another blog for the riding with lots more info for you to enjoy: http://pdx2van.blogspot.com/
