RE: Buffalo Bike Party June 2018 - Alien Abduction
I really enjoy the themes. It is just hard to get people to participate. I should have brought more aluminum foil to pass on to others. Next month is a "glow" ride. I'll but enough glow sticks to pass out to people who don't bring anything. It's an easy cheap one for us to make sure everyone participates in the theme.
It sounds great, I would always turn up but I looked it up and 4723 miles is a long way to come for a cycle ride. I will have to ride with you in spirit.
A friend of mine is a member of a cycle group who meet every Thursday. Anyone who doesn't come has to pay a small fee and put up with the riduculing of the others the next time they turn up. Seems to work for them. Their Thursday night run consites of a quick 30 mile ride and the rest of the night in the pub. (bar)
Once a year they have a whole weekend trip. One year abroad in europe and the following year in the UK. I don't live there anymore so can't join them. If they don't come they have to pay a fine.
But they don't do a theme so they can't be as good as your rides. I really do like the idea of a theme.
The themes are fun, especially when popping into a bar. We didn't invent the idea though. They were already doing bike parties in other cities.
