    New Belgium Brewery (our sponsers for one of our tours in 2003) is throwing an event in San Francisco's Golden Gate Park. We will be part of this show: full rodeo - wear a clown outfit, ride your bike to the show, and you too can be part of the show!

    May 23rd - Seven Year Anniversary Show!
    Yep, the Bike Rodeo has been around for Seven years of scrapped up shins, bruised ribs, and Tecate drinking! What have we done over seven years? Made bikes, thrown parties, and drank beer.

    The will be at "The Box Shop". Drive down Evans right on Innes, past the power station and there it will be on the left.


    Ouch... bloody show. One guy got stiches in his head after being roped off a bike. Another person broke two teeth jousting!
    May 8th - San Francisco, Bike Kitchen Party
    Located between 18th and 19th streets and Florida and Alabama streets, there is a large lot. The Bicycle Kitchen is throwing their one year anniversary party. The Bike Kitchen is a group that gives bike repair classes -- sort of a bike-self-help group: you learn how to fix your bike yourself.

    The event was a blast, we ate hot dogs, watched the Bike Kitchen's Huffy-Toss contest and slow ride races. Thanks for inviting us, we had a blast!
    May 1st and 2nd - Coachella Music Festival
    The Coacella Music Festival will be taking place in Indio, California. Cyclecide will have some rides set up and bikes to ride.

    But music wasn't the only attraction. The Cyclecide Bike Club, one of the festival sideshows, gave concertgoers free rides in their rebuilt bicycles and pedal-powered Ferris wheel. Some bikes were rebuilt to bend in the middle, providing an unexpected balancing challenge, while others had cutout tires as bumpers built to crash into each other. - TheDesertSun.com

    [We loved] the Bike Rodeo, a miniature amusement park filled with an odd assortment of pedal-powered rides. - The Boston Globe

    April 25th - Berkeley:
    35th Anniversary of People's Park
    Setting up the Merry Go Round The Bike Rodeo is participating in the 35th year anniversary of the creation of People's Park. This is an all day event: bring a picnic and hang out!

    Here is a bit of history about the Park. Thirty Five years ago, on April 20th, 1969 People's Park was created in Berkeley, California. The empty lot in 1968 was called a "scene of hippie concentration and rising crime" by the University of California administration; they bulldozed the make shift community under the guise of protecting the People.
    A year later, the People took the Park back -- the University had left the lot muddy and vacant -- and the People planted trees, flowers, landscaped, and constructed a playground for Berkeley residents and migrating hippie children. The dum,dum autorities got mad, rioted, injured 128 civilians, and killed several. No policemen were injured. Thousands protested, and the Free Speech movement was started.
