Two of our members have moved on, Agent Nikita and Agent DirtBag.  They were both awesome, hard working and wonderful, and they will be missed. In their wake, we have accrued two new members, Agent Vulvattack and Agent Rummy Rose! You can check out their bios soon on the bio page of our website, and see them in their very first performances this month.

On Monday, January 16, the Sprockettes will join with many others such as Mic Crenshaw, Wanderlust Circus, Justin James Bridges, David Rovics, DJ Hoya and many more in a show called “Occupy the Dream” – a morale booster for the Occupy movement. In solidarity with people’s movements all over the world, we will gather to honor the troops on the front lines of this peaceful revolution as well as Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. We really hope to see you there. Spread the word with the Facebook event and learn more about the performers and the event here. There is a donation asked, but no one will be turned away due to lack of funds.

Our second appearance will be at Project Grow alongside the works of artist Johhnie Olivan, Co-Founder of Rejuiced Bikes. He will showcase his 3D installations and pedal powered pieces throughout the month of January. Rejuiced Bikes is a space that works to recycle unwanted bicycle parts that would otherwise be melted down. On Friday January 27th, the Sprockettes will perform at the closing of this amazing event. Find out more info and RSVP here.

Stay cozy and we’ll see you soon!

And here’s why: Mini Bike Winter, one of Portland’s finest events is just around the corner, promissing loads of fun for the whole bicycle and Zoobomb community. There will be tons of bike riding, games, chariot wars, friends from all over hanging out and having a splendid time. And to celebrate it all, there will be a rocking party Saturday night. And you are invited!

And the Sprockettes will be bringing it with an awesome performance, including a brand new act! and, of course, a good selection of our favorites. We love performing to new crowds, but shows like this one, when our community is so active and involved, these are the shows that keep us pumping.

We cannot wait to bring it on and to see our home girls The Bay Area Derailleurs!!!

Don’t miss it, meet at the Zoobomb Pyle at SW 13th and Stark at 8pm sharp to ride to the show.  Plus, there’ll be an acro-tastic performance by Kazum on the way to the party!

And on a personal note, Agent SweetPea, who’s been part of the group for many good years will now be focusing her powerful energy in new things. And me too, actually, I’ll be moving to my homeland, Brazil, a week after this show and I’m working hard to make it the best one yet. I’ll miss these ladies so much and my heart will forever have a hot pink sheen to it.

Let’s party hard!
Agent Feral

The event will be held at 316 NW 4th Ave. (where the Mini-Bike Winter party was). Doors at 7pm, show starts promptly at 8pm. Wear gold! $5-150,000 at the door!!! Please come, tell your friends, and tell those who can’t come to donate online. Every little bit helps enormously!

Thank you.

The days are longer and seem to be getting warmer. We are officially in “spring training.” But with spring come more gigs and we are pleased to say that we will performing a few times in April (see upcoming shows). It feels so good to be back in “Sprockettes Season.”

Spring also means that our ladies from afar will be rejoining us in the next few weeks. Which means we really “get serious.” May is a crucial time for developing our new material and fine tuning the set we’ll performing for our summer tour.

That said, May is our blackout period, NO SHOWS. We know it’s a bad timing and street festivals are under way. We are sad to turn down so many kickin’ events. But know that we will be at our best when June rolls around.

Working hard at practice twice a week we are planning a kickin’ summer set. Look for new material as well as some classics mixed in with tricks and stunts that’ll blow your mind.

The Sprockettes are Portland’s all female synchronized mini-bike dance troop. We promote movin’ your body, DIY style, supporting our homies and livin’ out your craziest dreams.
