TRACKSTAND PROJECT

I'm planning the first TRACKSTAND PROJECT on Saturday, April 11.
I know, you're wondering WTF is the TRACKSTAND PROJECT?@^%!)
Keep on reading.
THE CONCEPT:
For our Trackstand Project moments, we would like to draw a couple dozen people at a time to participate in drawing attention to some of the coolest bikes of the world. Instead of critical-massing, we would like to create an experience that is fun, non-intrusive (in your face activism), and eye-catching. We believe that we could use “the Trackstand” to draw attention in a crowd, which will then be followed up with a hustle to the next Trackstand location (The focus for this TRACKSTAND PROJECT would be Trackstanding.)
HOW IT WORKS:
- Participants will be asked to show up a designated time and place.
- Participants will then proceed to the “Trackstand” around a crowd of people as if they were sculptures in that particular environments (e.g., malls, events, outdoor shopping areas, etc.).
- A cue will be given by the director (_IJUNES) of the Trackstand moment.
- Participants will then stop what they were doing and stay Trackstanded until they fall over or receive another cue telling them that the freeze is over. (Can you track stand for 5 min????)
- Following the trackstanding, participants will follow the leader in a hustle to the next location while screaming belligerently
DIscuss. Thanks. Sorry for the plagarism.

This will be hilarious because lots of people will likely fall out of their trackstands before the 5 minutes are up, which will cause others to flinch, twitch, laugh and fall. It'll be like bike dominoes.

we gotta have noisemakers and firecrackers, so when somebody wins, we all crowd over the winner, and make noise and celebrate like he wont the Giro.
