SCALLEYCAT

We have some wild friends in the biggest little city, Reno NV. They love bikes, beer and anarchy – the totality of these interests manifests itself as a yearly bike race called SCALLEYCAT. SC is a 24 hour, booze fueled debauch in and around Reno, including punk shows, puking, fire, buying stuff for bums, graffiti, and many, many bad ideas. Overall, it’s one of the best times you can have in the wild west. We were’t there to win, but that’s not the point.
