SOPO Bicycle Co-Op hosted its 9th annual benefit party this past weekend to raise funds and to celebrate bike culture in Atlanta. We joined up with the organization on Saturday for the citywide scavenger hunt, costume contest and skids and tricks competition. Some fun items on the scavenger hunt list included doing the Harlem Shake in front of the High Museum, hula-hooping in Piedmont Park, playing bike polo in Reynoldstown with Atlanta Bike Polo, manning a row-bike at Elliott Street Pub, and getting tattoos or a face-painting at Memorial Tattoo in Cabbagetown. Everyone then met up at the Basement in East Atlanta Village to tally points, get judged for best costume, and participate in a skids and tricks competition. Bikers competed for longest skid, slowest track-stand race and more. For more information about the SOPO Bicycle Co-Op, visit sopobikes.org.
