February 7, 2012 – Minneapolis, MN— For the third consecutive year four of the cycling industry’s emerging  new brands,  Handsome Cycles, 02 Rainwear, Twin Six and Banjo Brothers  partnered to host the Cutters Ball.  The Cutters Ball is an underground, unsanctioned celebration of Minneapolis Bike Culture for local cyclists and a free social event for visiting bike shop staff that are in Minneapolis for an annual trade show. The free party takes place in South Minneapolis, in the workspace of custom frame builder, Peacock Groove.

The event was the brainchild of Handsome Cycles’ founders Jesse Erickson and Ben Morrison who recruited the other local companies into the mix. The annual event which is by all accounts, “just a damn good party,” does create a venue for like-minded cyclists to brave the normally frigid February temperatures ton seek out  free food from Jimmy Johns, beer from Pabst Brewing  and music. For those in town from other cites, it presents a unique opportunity to dive head-first into Minneapolis cycling culture.

 

The Cutters Ball takes place Saturday, February 18th from 7pm-?? at 2718 East 28th Street, Minneapolis, Minnesota. The event is free.  Host sponsors are Twin Six, Banjo Brothers, 02 Rainwear and Handsome Cycles. Other sponsors include Hed Cycling, Peacock Groove, Kurt Kinetic, Jimmy Johns and Pabst Brewing Co.
