Who wants to ride down there together from Phoenix? I'm looking at you, Ko.

Fridays are the worst for me as I start work every Sat at 7:50 AM.

Also one of my top bands is playing Friday night... I'll have to see how the show goes first.

That's just crazy late for me to get to work the next day!

Dude, the 19th is Saturday. I know cos The Breakup Society is playing Friday night, the 18th at Hollywood Alley with Eurovox, not that I'd expect anyone to go and lock up their bikes next to all the Vespas that will no doubt be out front.

yeah meet up on saturday 11:30pm start on sunday midnight

Oh snap. I'm in.

i dont get why you hate cruisers.. at least their riding a bike
promote it if your going to put it on maybe make it a weekly thing or monthly

maybe we can have group rides every two weeks like first week phx third week tempe just to get everybody together and have a good time..

i probably scared her away with my spandex, gears, and brakes......oh well. yea flyer forsure to come shortly i'll keep you guys posted.

Dammit, where is the write-up about the Midnight Refry's Birthday Alleycat? Some of us were too old and hungover and parental to make it out.

me too.

But at least we (now) live in cities in which the average Summer temperature is less than that of the surface of the Sun. Plus we have hills! Huzzah!

yeah the temps are great, but 'hills' ???? there's not so much 'hills' around here but full-on-gear-mashing-kill-youself mountains out this way.

ps-i like having gears

I can't wait to get some. Gears, I mean. Haven't had too much chance to ride lately, but I have very nearly exploded my lungs when I did.

Wish you guys could make it...

To everyone else. We're trying to make this event the biggest one so far. I hope EVERYONE who rides can come out. It's going to be a blast.

As with the "Numbers" race... it will be an even playing field for everyone.

The prizes are off the chain.

Please let everyone know!
