It's That Time of the Year!!!!

You knew it was coming!
The Rusty Tool Shed's Annual Crappy Bike Ride
and as usual, it's on the 4th of July

Join us as we ride our crappiest bikes over to the Wisconsin State Fair Park where we will sit waaaaaaay up in the cheapest of seats to watch the West Allica Fireworks, drink Cheap Beer & pass around a few bottles of Boone's Farm. Perhaps we'll smoke a few cheap cigars as well. Afterwards we'll stop at Gille's for some custard before returning back to The Rusty Tool Shed.

The rules are so few, and yet so simple that even if you ate paste as a kid you should still be able to follow them.

Free Beer! - This year I'm getting the good stuff

No Titanium or Carpet Fibre - Only if you wanna see that stuff get stomped on, then burned

Whining - Try it and you'll probably get slapped like a chump

Dress Code # 1 - Plaid. Wear any thing plaid and get in for free!

Dress Code # 2 - Helmets are optional and please, no lycra

Who? - Click here to see who's on the guest list

What to Bring? - Your Bad Ol' Self, and friends if you have any. A sweater in case it gets chilly and some money to buy me some custard.

What constitutes a crappy bike you ask? While cheap & fugly always scores big points, any bike that doesn't require special shoes or cost much money is acceptable. So go out and hit the rummage sales! Go to the Goodwill! Break into your neighbor's garage! Just dig yourself up a 3 speed or a Huffy and get yer ass on over here!

We'll start assembling here at The Rusty Tool Shed betwixt the hours of 6 & 6:30pm, ride leaves at 7:30, fireworks when it gets dark! The Rusty Tool Shed can be found at the crux of Milwaukee Ave and 72nd Street in Wauwatosa, WI. I'll provide refreshments both here and at the fireworks. I've also arranged for secure crappy bike parking at the fairgrounds.

Give a shout if'n yer in!
