It's been awhile since we've held a "Wednesday Night Fatties" ride and although this winter is currently proving to be pretty pathetic we should get together and ride anyway. RSVP via the event on the "Bozeman Fatbike Family" Facespace page if you're into that sort of thing.

Meet promptly at 6:30 in front of the Public Library to begin riding a few minutes later. We'll do an out-and-back loop on a town trail and then once back at the Library consider doing another out-and-back loop on another depending on how the group is feeling.

This is a weeknight fatbike spin on the local town trails. Camaraderie comes first and although no one is going to stop you from racing your buddy, you won't find a competitive element here. Come one, come all, tell your fat-friendly friends.

A couple of weeks ago, some of us were at a party. Like most parties we go to, this one consisted of mostly bike geeks. There was a nearly full moon, and the night was cool and clear, and we had bikes and were a bit buzzed on good beer.
Naturally, someone says, "Let's go for a ride!"
So a few of us hop on our bikes- a fixed gear, a single speed, and a multi-speed townie- all with smooth road tires- and we head out to ride some trails on the south side of town in the moonlight.
And that was one of the most fun rides I've ever done. Slick tires skittering across the trail, struggling to keep Captain E in sight (more difficult with my headlight off) and laughing my ass off.
After that I figured that this is WAY too much fun to not make a regular event.
So this Saturday night, at at 8pm meet at Spectator's by MSU. We'll have a few drinks, then ride, then head on into town and probably go someplace else. Kinda like a pub ride, but a bit more riding.

See you there.

PS: Pirate theme.

I won't lie to you. I had some fun this last weekend. I wish I had it in me to discuss it in detail. But, frankly, a gentleman doesn't speak. Suffice to say that word on the street is that something of this nature will happen regularly. For those of you that missed out...you missed out

Here are the pictures. Buy the way, Ruben fell into a pothole the size of a kiddy pool and then laughed about it and asked me to take a picture. He was either drunk (likely) or just thought it awesome (also very likely as Ruben is awesome).

Shit might be off the hook next weekend, keep your ear(s) to the ground.

Tonight's (7/25/08) pubride will include a barbecue at an undisclosed location. But, much like an alleycat, you have to be at the beginning to find out where the end is. So be at Chalet at eight, with bells on (not literal bells, you'll get laughed at downtown).

C Note

We hears things on the streets. And one of the things we hears is that there's a pubride comin yer way. Friday (7/25), meet at Chalet at eight pm (although it would be novel to start a pubride at eight am one of these days) for some booze cruzin'.

Bring yer bike and yer liver.

I'll try not to pull a hamstring playing cricket this time.

C Note

Mark those calendars, cancel those holiday party plans. December 16th will be the next race!
A little different theme this time. The details are still being worked out, but I think that it will be something like a race, either a drag race in town or a point-to-point race (like from Spectator's to the Filler), followed by a good old-fashioned Pub Crawl. Maybe there will be some sort of Gift requirement for kids thrown in, too. We'll see. Keep checking back, details will be posted as soon as they're....created.
