phx polo girls


In Portland we remember a time when girls played polo... they even had their own league for a while. Then their numbers were drained and now we have some of the toughest ladies playing the sport. This weekend we are in Tempe/PHX to see if more sun = more baked clams.

Monday nights at 8:00 at the northwest corner of Dorsey and Southern in Tempe.

So then, our Portland Pork Barrels will face their #1 team for some unquantifiable amount of glory and probably a lot of beer, on the hardcourt no less!

Dr Doom raced in the Single Speed Cyclecross World Championships in Portland this weekend:


According to our sources, he got a flat in the first lap and played catchup and drink the rest of the race in order to take home 50th place. This image captures much of the Republic of Doom sentiment.

Rising like Phoenix in the Morning

Avast! Our friends in Phoenix have made a rad flyer!

if you are in Tempe (a tightly defined city surrounded by the endless sprawl of Phoenix) you should investigate the Bike Saviours. Moreover there are more than a few fun things planned for this weekend,

starting with a challenge!


bike polo in Phoenix at 7:30pm on Wednesdays at the Desert Storm park at 16th St. and Colter

Davis Bike Church: Get the Fuck Out!

Brothers and sisters, it has come to our attention that the Davis Bike Church, which has been offering education, tools and support to cyclists for several years, has been evicted!


Citing things such as being open to the Davis community-at-large as a liability the UC Davis Student Housing has not given us any possible alternatives, stating only that we need to get out.
- paraphrased statement from the Bike Church Ministers


This is a very disturbing turn of events. Davis, California was the nations first platinum bike city as defined by the American League of Cyclists. It has been a badge that many residents have worn with pride. After this despicable act they may be the first city to ever loose the status as a Platinum Bike City.

lots of bikes

Bike Church represented at 3:40 in this Street Films movie

To contact the UC Davis Student Housing, email Chuck Huneke, Assistant Director of Residential Education jchuneke@ucdavis.edu

and/or

Tucson has porn

"Tuc Son" That's one way to remember how to spell Tucson.

Thursday, November 6th we are at the Dry River Collective showing Bikexploitation. Then Friday, November 7th we show The Pornography of the Bicycle. Back to back screenings are pretty rare for us, and we are doing it to help celebrate Dry River's 3rd Anniversary of not being shut down by the man.
  • 6pm a costumed bike ride leaving from Dry River
  • 7pm Whiskey Breath Burlesque grinds, sings and cavorts under influences
  • 7:30 The Pornography of the Bicycle
  • 9:15 A grip of bands Logan Greene, XwalrusX, Feel Good Revolution, Redbeard, Cizana
  • 11:30 V for Vendetta
  • If you are too pooped to pop you are encouraged to sleepover!

I hear rumor of a game of capture the gland may break out on Saturday, and closing this weekend is the All Soul's Procession on Sunday.

Quite a weekend, come on down

740 N. Main St. @ University Blvd.

we didn't find the polo game last night, but made contact with them today and are hopeful for some polo action soon, perhaps Monday!

A bike polo match!

Tucson Bike Polo is played every Thursday on the UofA mall (East grass area) @6or7pm until we Mob out! (since2003)

lets see what they got!

Filling the Whole Bisbee

Some exciting things about Bisbee, AZ:
  • St. Elmo, the bar we drank and watched the 2008 election results was also the last meeting location of the Monkey Wrench Gang
  • The Bisbee Bicycle Brothel specializes in hand build lugged steel frames made in England in the mid 1900s
  • Some brave bikers went down into one of the world's largest open copper mines late last night.





Just sayin...




a sweet dance party can
break out at any moment

working the Bisbee Business


We are out of Texas!

Presently we are on the road West past Warez, Mexico (the home of one of the most terrifying series of unanswered female disappearings and deaths) To Bisbee, AZ where Spooky Tooth Cycles plays host to our sultry cycle program. A added bonus, The Whiskey Breath Burlesque is joining us in this screening (and again on Friday in Tucson)
  • Wed, November 5th
  • Spooky Tooth Cycles
  • One Cochise Row, Bisbee AZ
  • 8pm, donations
Also, they are working on having some naked tall bike jousting beforehand.

Honestly, we are thinking of making them some sort of award for having the best web page pimping the show.

ALSO we hear they play polo Thursday in Tucson. So we are coming ready!



Comon AZ! lets do this up right!

On our way out!


Will we find a space to show the goods in Marfa before we leave TX? Or we will attempt the dreaded pull out method?
