The Bike Oven is participating in this year's Northeast L.A. Christmas Parade! If you'd like to join riders in this years parade, here is the deal:
* Meet at the Bike Oven at around 10 a.m. on Sunday, December 2, 2007;
* Bring your bicycle;
* Wear traditional garb, an ethnic costume (please, do not mock anyone), or articles of clothes that in some way reflect your ethnic background or a professional trade. You can come as a preppie, you can be a campesino or campesina, a sari wearing Indian, a re-incarnation of Zapata, or a hard-working delivery man, factory worker, or plumber. Medieval peasants are welcome too;
* Sign the stupid release the parade organizers need you to sign;
* Ride in the parade! The parade will probably start rolling at around 1:30 p.m.
If you have any questions give us a call at (310) 902-5439 or email ubrayj02@yahoo.com

Sweet!
No we have two posts on here!
Yours is better than mine though.

That list of costumes is just a jumping-off point.
If you've never been in a large parade before, this is going to be a blast. If you have been in a parade before (esp. if you joined us last year), please come back and do it again!
Here is a description of what the Bike Oven's parade entry is all about:
"Riders from many cultures use their bicycles to make the world a better place by polluting less, making friends, shopping locally, and improving everyone's quality of life."

This ride is looking to be super button down.
How about doing away with the costume bullsh*t?
Just show up. We'll get wasted afterwards.
There will likely be a bike-powered concert going on afterwards at the Oven.

Water, fruit, baked goods - all enticing stuff to keep people happy while we wait for the bloody parade to start.
I'm going to make some cake the night before, so people: free cake if you join us for the parade!
I've talked w. Brian about hooking up some sort of banner for the day that says "BIKE OVEN" on it that we can carry as we ride down Figueroa.
I'm going to try and decorate the rickshaw - and if anyone wants to be Mr. and Mrs. Bike Oven on the back of the rickshaw, just show up in something funny, and the spot is yours. Rickshaw drivers discretion whether you get to ride or not :)
