Bicycle Bash by the Bay 2009

This year, the Skirts will again be participating in the Bicycle Bash by the Bay. This year the festivities will be held at North Straub Park in St. Petersburg. We expect a great turnout, and we did have a LOT of success last year! We will be selling our famous cupcakes as well as some handmade cycling accessories, so stop by and check it out!

FM.24.09

In what was recently announced as the final Faster Mustache race, The Skirts outdid last year's showing by over 5 times the number of laps.... which isn't hard when your previous record is two. This year, our team of 2.5 completed a total of 11 laps. During her first lap, Cathryn took a spill and was incapacitated for the rest of the race. Kudos to Maria and Sierra for rallying together for a strong finish from what was essentially a 2 person team at that point.
In even better news, our own Sierra won a pair of track drops for placing as fastest female under 21. Congratulations Sierra!

Pictures!

Faster Mustache is coming up! This relay in Atlanta is amazing and not to be missed.

South Florida Call to Cranks

On May 23-25, South Florida and Heart of Gold Clothing will be hosting the Call to Cranks bicycle weekend. Put it on your calendar and expect nothing but the best from the SoFl folks! The Skirts will be there to race and to sell delicious cupcakes. In addition to an alleycat, the weekend will feature polo, velodrome action, and the Florida premiere of Death Pedal!

Sunday Long Rides!

The Skirts are bringing back the Sunday Long Ride! Last Sunday, Susan and Erin went to Seminole and back. Next week, we're taking the day off for Mother's Day, but the following week we will be taking another long ride along the trail. Stay tuned for updates on meeting times and routes! And as always, email us if you have any questions.

Fixed Fight 3=Total success.

This past Saturday was Fixed Fight 3, and the Skirts had a total of 6 ladies racing. Our cupcakes were a smashing success, and we even sold a few shirts and a home-made top tube pad from Susan! Here are some pictures from the race, taken by Matthew Parke:
