Super Market Street Sweep Results




We love supporting events that help others and where the organizers have the thoughtfulness to thank their sponsors individually after the event. This year's Supermarket Street Sweep Bicycle Race in SF is the poster child for such as event. (Hint, hint...all you alleycat planners)

Kacey sent us the following stats:
• 198 racers
• 7,507lbs of food for the San Francisco Food Bank.
7,507lbs of food is the equivalent of more than 6,000 meals!

Adam Shapiro was the speed demon of the day and won our custom Rush frame.

Help The Lads 'Keep Going' and Maybe Win A Soma Frame



If you read our blog regularly, we have outfitted Bryan and Joaquin (collectively known as "We Keep Going") with a couple of our Saga touring frames for an extended tour into South America and beyond.
Even though they are living a simple cyclo-touring lifestyle, they still need dinero to buy supplies and food on their long journey.

They are holding a raffle to raise these funds. For every $10 donation you make, you get an entry to their raffle. Why should you help these guys live their postcard life? Holiday good will? Karma ? Or maybe the chance to win a new Soma frame and fork of your choice? Winner to be drawn in a few weeks, so donate soon.

Disclosure: Soma Fabrications is not involved in planning or running this raffle. This post is just a favor to our friends and not an official promotion for Soma. Any questions should be directed to We Keep Going.

Club Santiago, La Boquita: Damn, wish we were there.
