This weekend is the Rocky vs. Godzilla alleycat! It's the biggest informal race of the summer, and a lot of fun. You do it in teams of two, relay style. It's a good race for out-of-towners, since one of the partners just sprints up and down the parkway from the Art Museum to Love Park and back.

Speaking of beer, it's Friday and I am OUT of here! Here's some hand detailing to start your weekend off right.
TGIF!
