[bars] Lowell Kinetic Sculpture Race - this Saturday!

[Tim - K1DC]

I forgot to mention on the net tonight an event happening in Lowell that 
I believe a lot of folks would find interesting.

The Lowell Kinetic Sculpture Race is one of my favorite events of the 
year!  It is a race of all-terrain human powered sculptures. Yeah, 
that's a mouthful -- easier to visit their website to get a sample of 
the madness! https://www.lowellkinetic.com/

They race through the streets of Lowell, through a 'mud pit' and then 
more roads and eventually down a section of the Merrimack River before 
returning the start/finish line in Lowell.  The machines are shining 
examples of creative engineering with a huge dose of whimsy.  Most of 
the 16 teams are local but there are few visitors from other sculpture 
races in the country.

I've had the pleasure of being a volunteer photographer for the event 
since it's inception.  It is incredible fun and will def. appeal to the 
engineers as well as the wide-eyed child in all of us.  You can see some 
of my images from last year's race here ( https://bit.ly/4gqdTTQ ) and 
here ( https://bit.ly/4mmJ97J ).

I'll be there --I hope to see you as well!
