The 13th Annual Cycle Messenger World Championships [1] are taking place from July 1-July 4, 2005 in NYC and Jersey City.
If you can let a sexy bike messenger crash on your couch for the weekend, sign up here [2].
Competitions include sprints, sprints on stationary hometrainers, bunny hop, a dispatch race, and a messenger race. From the pictures on the website it looks to be good time.
And while you’re in the bike messenger fever, be sure to watch Kevin Bacon’s 1986 masterpiece Quicksilver [3].
Priceless quote:
Terri: What are you doing?
Jack: I’m oiling my chain.
Terri: Why?
Jack: Because it makes me go faster.
