This here's Hurl lookin' 'bout as pretty as he gets.

An import deerect from NoDak, Hurl's been a major player on the local Salvation Army scene for years. He's organized the denizens of this downtown Minneapolis homeless shelter into a ragtag band of mimes and ballet dancers that have received every major award. The City Pages listed them in their "Best Ragtag Band of Mimes" edition and they've made Velo News' "Hot" section on no less than seven occasions.

Hurl lives and breathes bike culture, which explains the tuburculosis and emphysema. 2004 looks to be the year that he actually makes it to Ragbrai - dig it Des Moines Register readers, Hurl is comin' at ya at top speed!
