Bootie (bicycle)

The Bootie Folding Cycle, or Bootie, is a pioneering folding bicycle that was produced by F & T Kitchin Engineering in Stanningley, Pudsey, West Yorkshire UK from 1965 to 1973. It was called the ‘Bootie’ because it was designed to be small enough to store in the boot (trunk in American English) of a car. It was advertised as the bike that could be taken to the countryside in a car and then used for touring, so it holds a unique place in bicycle history as probably the first miniature, folding tourer. Examples of the Bootie Folding Cycle are now exceedingly rare.

Design

The design features a small frame with tiny wheels and fold-down handlebars. Early models were also fitted with a folding seat post, but later ones were fitted with a (very long) conventional seat post, so the only part that actually folds on them is the handlebars.

The folding mechanism for the steering, unique to the Bootie, comprises a solid steel, two-part hinge fitted between separate upper and lower steerer tubes.

Bootie (club night)

Bootie is the first club night in the United States dedicated solely to mashups and bootlegs, and is now the biggest all-mashup party in the world, with regular parties in several cities. The original party began at the Cherry Bar (now Codeword) in San Francisco in August 2003, and moved to DNA Lounge in March 2006, where it now occurs every Saturday, and is simulcast into the virtual venue The Level in Second Life. For over a year, it was the only club of its kind in America, and its creators, DJs Adrian & the Mysterious D (aka A Plus D), along with former resident DJ Party Ben, were instrumental in helping to popularize mashup culture on the West Coast. The club has showcased mashup DJs from around the world, including DJ Earworm, DJ Lobsterdust, DJs from Mars, ShyBoy, Go Home Productions, Evolution Control Committee, and dj BC, as well as featuring a live house band, Smash-Up Derby, known as "the world's first mashup rock band."

Bootie SF has been regularly named "Best Dance Club" in the SF Weekly's "Best of SF". The Bay Guardian's annual "Best of the Bay" has awarded Bootie for "Best Theme Club Night/Best Dance Party and Best Event Producers" for several years. Best of the Bay Issue Hallmarks of the event include the Midnight Mashup Show, which often consists of aerial act performers or drag queens, as well as a regular 11 PM show, which rotates throughout the month between live mashup rock band Smash-Up Derby, burlesque show Hubba Hubba Revue, and drag revue The Monster Show. After the shows,the crowd is thrown a limited number of Bootie CDs, which many club patrons collect. The night has been written about in national magazines such as Spin, Complex, and Club Systems International.
