Bike Wars Paris

Have just been posted by my friends in Paris why not make it a weekend of wackyness it is only a small hop on the Eurostar
Ahoy bike pirates of all horizons !!

A year after the success of the first staging, the Stendhal squatting collective do it again. We're investing a new place, the former Barracks of Reuilly, near Bastille in Paris, squatted by the Alice's Garden http://paris.intersquat.org/?page_id=95
and XP Station http://garexp.org/ collectives (though the location is to be confirmed).

We've imported the concept from our Northern neighbours, when we visited the Kopi collective in Berlin http://koepi137.net/...a bike war, it's a demolition derby on a bicycle, it's Mad Max on a push-bike. Create and destroy, that's the spirit..

Please take a look at the telebocal local TV video http://telebocal.org/actu/bike-war/ (it's in French but still really good to get the feeling of the day!) and at this photo gallery

(facebouc).

There'll also be a parade and games for all : tall bike jousting, slow-riding..

To really enjoy the Bike War, you NEED to participate ! The Stendhal hosts anybody who wants to build a monster, and provide tools and basic material, in our new place, a former maternity building also located near Bastille.
Starting from now...

PLEASE ALSO FORWARD THIS MESSAGE TO YOUR FRIENDS

They're sooooo cool, those frenchies.

Another bump for this, hope to make it at some point in the afternoon.

I didn't understand anything.

Especially the apparent casual disregard for properly inflated tyres

The first casualty of Bike Wars is tyre pressure.

Again, again.
