Just weeks after ChopCult dropped last August, motivated members took the bull by the horns and launched a low-budget funfest for motorcyclers in America's heartland. The Twine Ball Run begins July 30, and what it holds in store for participants is anyone's guess. If that adventure involves music, motorcycles and mayhem, how can you go wrong?

Billdozer and I are making the trek July 27, and we're encouraging fellow SoCal bikeriders to truck or ride behind us. CC member Bulldog is handling logistics for this event, and he's done a great job of promoting the Twine Ball Run in the CC events forum and Community calendar. If you're coming to Kansas for Bulldog's hoedown, please say so here. I'm looking forward to meeting the hardy bikers from America's corn belt, and we're bringing cameras to shoot bikes for future ChopCult features. If you're coming to Kansas, dial in your death trap and help us promote your scene.

On behalf of everyone on ChopCult, thanks to Bulldog and company for making the TBR1 a reality.
