SS Pussycat : The Fountain Ride
August 24, 2007
The SS Pussycat is an annual Portland alley cat open to women and transgendered riders only. The ride meets at the Jamison Square Fountain at noon on Saturday. It's not just about speed, racers can also opt to be judged on their spirit (and take an entirely different course). Costumes are encouraged for this approx. two-hour ride. Prizes this year are awesome and include a four hour frame building workshop with Sacha White of Vanilla Bicycles for the winner and a friend, a full bicycle fitting from Michael Sylvester of Bicycle Fitting Services, a Chris King headset, a Timbuk2 messenger bag from Team Estogen, Deller Designs cycling hats and more. The organizers are hoping to award a prize to just about every participant.
Admission is $5 plus, curiously, a plastic water bottle that racers will need for some of the on-course challenges. If you're a trans rider, Veloshop will comp your entry.
Sounds like tons of fun to watch or race. Men are encourage to come watch, cheer and volunteer. For more info, contact Bethany Berson, postbethany [at] hotmail.com .
