Just saw a feature on this event (which took place today) on a local TV network station. They interviewed one person who had modified her Big Wheel with a titanium handlebar with a Garmin attached to try to track how fast she was going.<br><br>
This used to be held on the Lombard St crookedest section, but due to the threats of lawsuits, they had to move to another crooked (and more steep and dangerous IMO) street this year.<br><br>
The preview clip for this year plus clips of last year's festivities can be found here<br><a href="http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=bring+your+own+big+wheel&search_type=" target="_blank">Annual Bring Your Own Big Wheel Competition - San Francisco</a>

That's funny!! It looks like they might wear their shoes out really quickly dragging them on the ground! The funniest thing is that I have that song "Going the Distance" on my ipod for running. It does really get me going!
