THIS SATURDAY - 11:00 AM - Till???

We need 2 more members for our team, and I am leaning towards a Volvo theme for our cart. We might end up with a bed\sleep theme instead, but I have a lot of Volvo parts to potentially affix, and I bet any potential TBers do as well... Maybe one of you has a busted ass grille and headlights we can wire up on the front.

Oh yeah, the urban iditarod is basically a bunch of drunkards tied to a shopping cart pulling it through the city over 4 miles. Part of the race takes it right through the Saturday Market. Steven Cobert did a report on it last year; you can find it on youtube.

We're already registered, and it is free, other than the possible consumption of enjoyable beverages en-route. There are something like 240 people already signed up to race, and likely a lot more will show.

Post or PM me!

Are you in even if we don't do a Volvo theme? Do you have parts we can use?

I think I have our team convinced that Sweden\swedish people will be our theme. So the cart will be a Volvo.
