Death Race 2008

The Birmingham Fixed Wheel Biking community (this is bikes without gears, isn’t it?) is aiming to reclaim the styx on halloween night with a ghoulish fancy-dress bike ride. Which has a storming flyer, thus:

FIX UP, LOOK SHARP! Fixed wheel (a.k.a. fixed gear) riding in Birmingham

And then they’re going to the pub. Much more worthy than the legalised begging that has been imposed on our culture from the states in recent years (and it it only my heart that sinks each time you settle down to watch The Simpsons and it’s a bloody hallowen special?).

  1. Birmingham: It's Not Shit loves Birmingham, its people, arts, animals, buildings, parks, grass verges, factories and bus stops. We've even got a soft spot for the Black Country.

    B:iNS runs The Brummie of the Year Award, Talk Like a Brummie Day and organises odd stuff like spending all day on the eleven bus.

    BiNS is mostly by Jon Bounds, a Birmingham based social web consultant, producer and writer. You can hire him to work on your stuff, or follow him on twitter. There's also stuff from Danny Smith and Karen Strunks.

    Feel free to send us anything you're interested in - or think we might be.
    If you've got gigs to promote, best to chuck them on the talk board.
