Totally and completely unaffiliated with Surly Bicycle Smut International and the family of SurlyCo companies and cartels, the Pugsley World Championships will be held tomorrow (Feb 25th) in lovely Decorah, Iowa.

If you think you are qualified, or know someone who might be, direct yourself or them to our parent company’s website to submit a resume…
