Amongst the sea of skinny tires and colorful Spandex, big name sponsors and clanking cowbells, a different breed of cyclist was lurking in the crowd last weekend. Some donned capes, others, mullets and half-shirts. Was it a mass escape from the looney bin? Maybe it was. Either way, the crowd went wild as the 6th annual Iron Horse Cruiser Criterium took to the Main Avenue starting line. Proceeds benefited local recycled bicycle nonprofit, Bicycle Lemonade. Heres a look:

Even Geri Atric got in on the Cruiser Crit action on Sunday. The Six Bears make their grand appearance on Main Ave. Super hero gone south? Or maybe just your average unicyclist. Bear witness to the future of cruiser criteriums as this young lad makes his way down the final stretch.
