Bike Chariot Racing

Ben Hurt

With the oil volcano spewing away in the gulf, and the way the economy is going, I often wonder what things will be like a year from now. After seeing this video over on the Life Bikin’ Blog, I wondered if this was a glimpse into the future of bicycle racing in the years to come. Will team cars, color coordinated uniforms, and gentlemanly conduct give way to armored chariots, thick padded armor, and gratuitous violence? Only time will tell.
