Still, as far as rivalries go, the one between Portland and our northern neighbor is friendly, McClane says. The rivalry with the Bay Area Derby Girls is another story. The teams will be matched according to their 2010 intra-league rankings, resulting in four brutal bouts be tween the rollers o f the Rose and Rat cities: Breakneck Betties vs. Derby Liberation Front, Guns ‘N ’ Rollers vs. Throttle Rockets, Heartless Heathers vs. Grave Danger and High Rollers vs. Socket Wenches.
