2001 Kinetic Adventure
Arcata to Ferdale
The Bikin' Fools arrived this year with TWO vehicles, both constructed at the 11th hour for the event. Mike and Teresa rode the engineering marvel, the Space Oddity while Linz, Shawn and Eric rode the Monolith trike.

"Hey, that's not the way to the slippery slough"

The Monolith riding into the history books
It wasn't until the third day that Eric and Linz (both on back) discovered that they were on the same sculpture!!!
(Monolith was also the first team to receive an award)*
