Gnome responds in symbols when asked what best represents the derby her: <O->-< (Turn your head sideways and you’ll get it.) If left alone on a desert island, Gnome would go for a swim. Then nap. Her favorite weapon of destruction is an iRobot 510 PackBot. (She also has a personal home robot named Stanley.)
Like Bazooka Joe, Gnome just cocks her head when someone asks her why she plays derby. Her answer? “Why not?”
What Do We Do on the Weekends, You Ask?
5 JanWhen they’re not on the track, PVRD skaters can be found at the gym, in yoga class, practicing their moves among the kids of the local roller rink, or loping through the woods. As they proved in November, PVRDers are a bit loco.
A small group (this author included) is training for Tough Mudder in May. Take a look below to see what we get up to on the weekends. If you spot Lethe L. Ejection, Gnome Ercy, Slammy Sis, me (Slam Dinista) or other PVRDers in places such as the Harris Hill Ski Jump stairs or the trails of Mount Sugarloaf, give us a shout!
