CHOOSE TO RIDE THE VALLEY THIS FRIDAY NITE, 6-14-13...
reply
Never too late to hype it up. Short and sweet 20 miler, with no real hills, just a coupla rolling ones in the middle. 2 stops, and it will be routed to hit the last train south.
Should you choose to go on this ride, the route is simple. Follow the tallbike until we get to the end of the page. Then you will be instructed to make choice of who to follow...

Tmrw nite ppl!!! If you haven't been on this ride or read the CYOA books before, it goes like this. We start in NoHo, ride together for a little while, and when we get to the end of the page, we stop for a moment and you have to make a choice. Clues will be provided, and it's up to you decide who to follow for the next coupla pages. Ride, choose, repeat. We'll mix in a quick stop or two to refuel, and it will be made clear when we are gonna stop and recharge for a longer duration. 3 stops total plus X number of choices before we head back to the start. We should be at the end of the book before 1AM, in case you need to pedal back to the train. 20 mi (?) total trip. I just remixed the ride again so it is even flatter than before. This ride is meant to invoke the sense of discovery and adventure, as well as party pace from the golden age of Midnight Ridazz, circa 2007-2008 from a rida who was there.
CHOOSE WISELY!

Sick ride, brought me back to the golden age of MR. Saw B-Rad and Sexy too, what a night.

PEANUT BUTTER!!!
Definitely a throw back ride to the golden age of MR. Simple and that's where the genius of it stems from. Very very well scouted and coordinated by Mr. Alex Dash and his awesome girl Jill. It had everything I would have included in a valley ride.
Some of the choices we had to make were:
Are you a CHOCOLATE or VANILLA fan?
If your day of birth is an even number you take that route. Odds go the other way.
Which do you prefer, PEANUT BUTTER or JELLY?
Do you feel more like a GIRAFFE or a SQUIRREL?
All night was spent riding in mini groups with different folks each time a decision had to be made. So far... best 2nd Friday Ride of this year.

Wow thnx for the positive feedback everyone <3<3<3 !!!! I'm really happy yall had a good time. Especially impressed by the large percentage of ppl who visited from the other side of the hill. Jill and I just might have to make this a more regular ride, separate from 2nd Friday, unless that month is open.
If I could read to you from the back of the next book, it would say your adventure begins at 7pm on a Saturday in the 323, and ends near a Subway station in 213... if you choose...
Until then, stay choosy...

I missed my Chocolate and my Giraffe but I got me some peanut butter. Loved it all except for the usual commentary on the Valley. People, it is what it is. Enjoy the ride, the people around you. Don't worry about what it is not and the vacuum you claim it is to your life. Dance lesson at the Dam and having your MOM tell me it was time to go home was tops. Another ride with half of Funderstorm is the only thing that can top the prior. Now to get the other half of Funderstorm back. When are you guys getting the band back together?
Do more of these. I liked it. and will like it again. Nice to meet Tallcan's old lady! Thanks for the flyer

I'm sorry, I wanted to come. I have a huge project that makes every Friday a no-go. I'm hoping to finish by the end of this year and make some more rides. Keep it going!

Thanks for the awesome ride, awesome spoke cards and general awesomeness. I got mixed up at the end and thought I was still riding with the ride but ending up in a group going home, nonetheless still a great ride!
