I would LOVE to see this happen.  It could be a giant boost in popularity of road racing in America

Dallas bicyclists descend on City Hall to peddle their transportation views
10:42 AM CDT on Saturday, October 16, 2010

Keith Rust was the first to arrive. Most of the others rolled up minutes later behind a police escort.

And as cars, trucks and buses rumbled along nearby streets, the riders gathered in front of City Hall in another show of support for two-wheeled transportation.

About 100 cyclists participated Friday in the second annual Bike to City Hall event.

They rode in from Oak Cliff , East Dallas , the Cedars and Plano. They included City Council members Angela Hunt, Delia Jasso and Dave Neumann.

And standing beside their rides, they heard hopeful words about changes coming to the city's streets and its transportation network.

"In the next five years, we're going to have one of the best bike systems in the country," Hunt told the crowd.

They can't fix DART and in 5 years one of the best bike systems?

Bean burritos should be regulated like any other explosive substance.  It's like C4, but uses digestive fluid as a detonator.

Competition for the Ninja 250R?!  This should be interesting:

Wonder if it'd make a good track day bike?

That's pretty damn cool!  I've always wondered why none of the other OEMs had a 250cc sport bike for the US...

wonder why they are so heavy
