I would like to know as well...

EDIT: That wasn't hard to find (via broadwaybomb.com forums)

*******Broadway Bomb Event Weekend*******
AAAAWWWWWWHHHHHH YEAH!!!! This is the one you've

been waiting for! The infamous race that lures racers from

around the world! THIS RACE IS HUGE!!!!!

OK we are looking forward to prize money from Sector 9 Lots and

lots of boards trucks and wheels from Gravity Skateboards,

Earthwing Skateboards, Randal, ShutNYC, Bustin Boards,

Seismic Skate, Comet Skateboards, Concrete Wave, and many

more!


The Weekend Should go like this Though nothing is stone yet.

Friday

Friday Night Rips --- Prospect Park, Brooklyn ---- 10/10/08 ----

8pm

Earthwing Skateboards is hosting the Friday Night Rips. where

there will be sliding and wheelies.

To get there take the F train 15th Street then skate into the park at

15th and Prospect Park West, turn right at the main loop and

skate till you get to the hill where the skaters are gathered.

Saturday

Broadway Bomb ---- Riverside Park, Manhattan ---- 10/11/08 -----

12pm

We will at 116th Street and Riverside Park try to be there early we

will start the race around 12:30 or at the first sign of the man. We

will be assigning number cards for people to hold, then show as

they cross the finish line. The Race is from 116th and Broadway

to Bowling Green. About 8.2 miles OK for those of you who

Haven't done this race before. THIS RACE IS EXTREMELY

DANGEROUS! NO ONE UNDER 18 WILL BE ALLOWED TO

RACE! If you have not been skating in traffic for many years I

suggest that you take it easy. PLEASE WEAR A HELMET. That

one thing can save your life. OK! Had to get that out! Once you get

the finish line at Bowling Green (A few blocks below Wall Street.)

Its important to show your assigned number so we can record

your time. After some photo Ops with the Bull at Bowling Green,

we move on to the barbecue.

Barbecue ---- East River Park ----- 10/11/08 2pm –---- 6pm

Burgers! Beer! Trophies! Skateboard Prizes! And Money!!! Sounds

like the makings of a kickass barbecue to me!!! The barbecue is a

great opportunity to get to know some of the people who were

crazy enough to skate with you down Broadway in Traffic.

Sunday

Powerslide Jam ------ Fort Tryon Park ----- 10/12/08 ------ 3pm

Hosted by Earthwing Skateboards the Jam will be about SERIOUS

SLIDING down some nice hills in the Cloisters in upper Manhattan.

If you take the A train to 190th street you will come out in the

park. If you are closer to the 1 train then take it to 191st street. If

you're driving from NJ come over the George Washington Bridge,

turn uptown on Broadway and go to 190th street. Then your

gonna want to skate down the hill and listen for the sound of

cheering skateboarders. If you get lost call Mike 917-703-4200 or

Brian 347-623-3421 from Earthwing.


This year we're going to try and sign up skaters online (once the website is
fixed) and then assign them a number. Please wait for an email that will
instruct you to sign up on online.

YO!

So psyched for this. In my travels lately I saw that at least 20 blocks of Broadway, from 34th St. down to Union Square, have been freshly paved.
