[bars] Lowell Kinetic Sculpture Race - this Saturday!

[David Marcucci]

I was just cleaning up my mail and had this one still in my inbox.

I didn’t remember where I had heard of LKSR but on Saturday I brought my
wife over there for the start of the race and the mud pit runs. First time
for both of us. It was a lot of fun. Thank you Tim for sharing!
