Any Boston area transplants that know if there's an equivalent out there to our Midnight Ridazz here in LA?

there is something called like skull and bones or bone something.
when i lived in the bean, i used to see them ride down Mass. Ave. on tallbikes and shit, but they seem a little more exclusive than MR.
i think they have a myspace that you can search for, since im too lazy right now.

Thanks for those links but still seems like there's nothing like Midnight Ridazz. Maybe because there's 6 months of winter back there every year. Yeah, I too have a love hate relationship with New England.

You could also swing by City Sports or BU and ask around or check the boards there. Bostonians can be pretty hardcore. I bet you'll find some Ridazz. Or, start your own....

I'm moving out there soon, and have been lurking the local bike lists that I could find (CM & massbike, mainly), and all I have to say are these three words:
TREN WAY EAST.

so if youre in Boston, this ride looks pretty cool --
Boston by Bike at Night 2008 info here

The ride starts downtown and winds throughout the city---ending as the sun rises over Christopher Columbus Waterfront Park. This year's route is new and will include many of the city's historic sites when the hour and darkness offer riders freedom on otherwise crowded city streets.

I did a 60 mile ride on Sunday with Quad Cycles out of Arlington heights. Pretty nice ride through Lexington, Concord and other surrounding towns. Decent sized group considering most riders were on the annual Pan Mass Challenge for Cancer.
Was hoping to track down Scul but they have no contact info on their site and the different bike shops i spoke to didn't know anyone or anything about them.

i read something online about one of the leaders of scul -- he works at some bike shop but conveniently enough i can't seem to retrieve the article...
ANYWAY! my future roommate says he knows the leader and Scul's "Fort Summer" will be down the street from me less than a month (supposedly). i'll keep you updated?

Thanks. I'm actually heading back to LA tonight. Yay. Can't wait to ride with all my friends again. It was nice riding here just not the same 'scene' I'll revisit this thread next year when i come back again.
