About me: The Sprockettes are an all female synchronized mini-bike dance troupe.
In a basic sense it is our mission to entertain audiences by choreographing dances to songs while using bikes in our performances.
IN a broader sense our mission is to:
Support and interact with our community to advocate and promote bicycle riding.
Empower and inspire people to live out their crazy and wildest dreams, therefore embracing the bad-ass-ossity of life and living to their potential.
To promote positive self image for all body types, offering an alternative to the dangerous mono-culture of what the ideal body type is.
To promote a female positive perspective that celebrates women empowerment.
Encourage exercise, movement, health, and a pro-physical lifestyle.
We organize our bike dance troupe in a collective fashion with consensus decision making.
Add us as your friend and we will keep you up to date with all our performances and other fun stuff!
WE HAVE A RAD WEBSITE NOW! YAY! IT IS WAY MORE UP TO DATE THAN OUR MYSPACE. CHECK IT OUT. PLEASE!

Who I'd like to meet: Those that are S.O.T.I.- SEXY ON THE INSIDE.
Which is everyone!
S.O.T.I is a song by a band from Olympia called Romanteek..
The song promotes positive self image from the inside, out!!!
Beauty comes from within and we are all Sexy, no matter how we look! Its all about being a YOU!!! and about being Sexy on the Inside!!
Aww shucks, I can't imagine spending a better valentines than with the ones I love the most. Thanks for being the best ladies on the planet and giving the world something to dance about. A smooch to each of you.
wooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!! after years of deliberating about whether or not I can deal with flying and it's contribution to climate change.. i finally went ahead and recklessly booked my tickets to the USA. get in!
so i arrive into Portland on Thursday 12th February at noon.
I intend to hang out in Portland for about 6 days, go to lots of Zoobomb events and, hopefully, catch the Sprockettes in action someplace???
then get the train to santa cruz, where i believe it will be warm and i might see some sunshine for a few days...then to san francisco for a week to go on critical mass then
go back to manchester on 1st March at noon from san francisco
WOOOOOO!!!
If you have a sofa or a floor or a place a bear like girl could lay a head at night times please let me know. It would be so great to meet and hang out with wondrous bike people rather than stay in some weird hostel or whatever.
