From another list, and of interest. Berkeley is just across the bay from San Francisco.
"TALLY-HO!"
Is it true?
Do mine eyes deceive me?
YES! IT IS TRUE!
This summer...Those masters of mayhem from "The Great Race of London", Major Jonas Junquebucket and Captain Thaddeus "Tadger" Thicketristle, have reunited and shall risk life and limb once more in a brand new adventure!
The city of Albany (near Berkeley) will be holding a Pennyfarthing/HiWheel cycle race. Tadger and Jonas have been invited to join in the race and represent to good citizens of London!
If you happen to be in the area of Albany on July 20th...and if your Victorian clothing is just bursting out of your closet...please come and support us and make "big noise" in the name of Her Majesty, Queen Victoria - "God save The Queen!"
See you there...and wish us jolly good luck!
TALLY-HO!

Sat, July 5, 2008 - 2:10 PMThat would be cool, far as I'm concerned... I'll be there, so I'd get to see it! (And meet you in person).

Thu, July 3, 2008 - 8:05 PMThank you for posting about this! My husband is one of the Albany City Council (and is also a registered Civil Engineer with a great interest in all things steampunkish) yet we were unaware of this. It isn't on the City of Albany Event Calendar www.albanyca.org/index.aspx
We would love to come out for it. Where will it be starting, and what will be the route?
