Thanks for making 2012 an awesome year to FYBO!

We’d like to thank everyone who participated, sponsored, and enjoyed the 13th annual Freeze Your Balls Off Scooter Rally! It was a great year, in spite of the cold weather, with attendance from as far away as Los Angeles and New Orleans. Looking forward to FYBO 14 – in fact, we’ve already got the Facebook invite ready: http://www.facebook.com/events/153428844769620/?ref=ts

See you next year!

Saturday Dinner at Bull City Burger and Brewery

We’re looking forward to our second stop on the Durham brewery tour, Bull City Burger and Brewery, in the heart of Downtown Durham. As their name suggests, there will be killer brews and burgers for consumption after the long ride or the town ride.

Here are 10 things you need to know about Bull City Burger and Brewery:

1. They make pretty much everything in house.
2. Their beef is all NC sourced and pasture raised.
3. They used recycled materials in their construction (check the decor!).
4. No high fructose corn syrup or hydrogenated fat (can you say duck fat fries and a Boylan soda machine – noms!).
5. They grind their beef fresh daily.
6. They make all of their beer on site.
7. Their veggie burger rocks because it’s called the Joan Jett.
8. They have nice buns – baked in-house daily!
9. They work with local farmers to supply produce.
10. They have outdoor seating for anyone who wants to freeze their balls off.

Come grab a pint and a burger after the ride!

INCOMING! Lord Thomas to Spin at FYBO

Adding to our roster of fine soul DJs, we’re welcoming Lord Thomas and his collection of 45s to Freeze Your Balls Off 2012 Saturday night! Lord Thomas comes to us from the Seven Cities Scooter Club, representing southeastern Virginia. He blogs about soul music at http://sirlordthomas.blogspot.com/ and enjoys “cats, scootering, vinyl, grilling, and loving.” Can you dig it?

Babysitting at FYBO

We will have an on-site babysitter at the Incriminators Big Ass Breakfast at Fullsteam Brewery, the Saturday morning of the rally, from 9:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. If you are interested in the babysitting on Saturday morning, please contact Sara Lachenman at sara@series1studio.com and let her know so we can have a head count and make sure there are enough staff to take care of the chilluns.

If you are interested in having a babysitter for Saturday evening, please contact Sara Lachenman for names and numbers of reliable sitters in the Durham area.

Swap Meet at FYBO Saturday Breakfast

On Saturday morning/mid-day, during the Incriminators Big Ass Breakfast at Fullsteam Brewery, we’ll have tables set up for a swap meet. Bring your extra/old/used/new scooter parts for sell, trade, or to give away!

We’re always looking for trophy parts…
