We're a little late on breaking the news on this one, nor are we sure if this is really news at all since The Hundreds are not as totally sweet as they were a few years back. But none the less, here it is. There is now a NYC location and its pretty neat - check it out if you got a chance.

This is Thunderdome, and death is listening, and will take the first man that screams
You've probably heard about that velodrome in Detroit that was revived by a group called The Mower Gang. Or, maybe you haven't. Either way, some enterprising fellows are holding a race for geared road bikes, fixies, mountain bikes, powered scooters and mopeds at Dorais Velodrome and using the proceeds to restoring the place by putting 50% of the profits into upkeep and giving the other 50% to Detroit Parks and Recreation.
Presenting, The Thunderdrome!
The classes and concept are awesome, including a Le Mans-style start for everyone. And no, you and your NJS-spec Gan Well will not be rubbing handlebars with some fire-breathing 50cc scooter. There are different classes for all the aforementioned bikes above. If you are anywhere nearby this event on the 16th, please go check it out. C2D will pay handsomely for coverage of this event in riches of unrelated used bike parts.
PS - more pics and a vid after the jump.

This post is bike-related
Elisa Basso, the sister of Giro d’Italia winner Ivan Basso, has been banned from attending sporting events in Italy for the next four years. The National Anti-Doping Tribunal of the Italian Olympic Committee (CONI) handed down the ruling on Friday afternoon.
Truly, we here at C2D feel for Ms. Basso. Although what we feel may have nothing to do with her penalty.

Pints n Pedals Vol 4: Mission to Red Hook
Went on a little bicycle cruise over the weekend - nothing major - the best kind. This was my view at the meet up spot.
My boy just got a brand new Iro he's thrilled about and was dying to break in. Great bike for the $.
There are always weddings at this spot in Dumbo, but this was kind of a weird. We presumed they were filming some kind of a reality show or perhaps those people wanted to cover the special moment from 12 different angles, with sound. Who knows.
Proud new owner.
This is why I love Brooklyn. We came across a festival of life in Red Hook and these Mexicans were cooking up some delicious stuff. Real authentic goodness. I mean, AMAZING. This was the real deal shmeal. Always a good pitstop.
