Last Sunday, April 25th, I had the honor of blowing the first whistle, I mean, the first bell, of the Texas Rollergirls bout. Many of the Rollergirls have brought bicycling into their daily lives, including biking to practices and games. They’ve also organized a few social rides of their own. To ring in Austin Bike Month 2010, they asked me to be their celebrity “whistleblower”.
And they gave me my own derby name… Vicious Cycle!
The half time included a demo game from Austin Texas Bike Polo.
You can find the Texas Rollergirls here: http://www.txrollergirls.com/ or at Playland Skate Center or on a bike or skates near you.
