good night C.R.A.N.K. MOB don't let the bed bugs bite.
good night to that the feeling when you're coasting down Venice Blvd, 400 strong
good night to the smile i couldn't wipe from my face all night
good night to the butterflies i would get in my stomach
good night to the OCD i'd feel to make sure i got there early
good night to chalk drawings and jump rope and dancing anywhere
good night to LAPD corking innersections 
good night to LAPD for reminding us to be safe, "there's a lot of drunk drivers out there"
good night to mini bike jousting, tall bike jousting and foot down
good night to silly string and windward circle
good night to popping your bike cherry on an all nighter
good night to the music trailer and Kafourkie Sky
good night to trying to get to the front of the massive ride
good night to every one i ever met and can't remember their name
good night to everyone i never met ... 
goodnight dear C.R.A.N.K. MOB - goodnight
sleep tight - don't let the fucking bed bugs bite!
i'll see you next year!

thats a good idea...
establish a following, and then let the one ride become something special...
I think most big rides should follow this format, I think it would allow LACM to restructure, so to speak...

At least after a year, my left arm will be stronger again:)

Once again, there's a confluence of factors preventing me from attending a C.R.A.N.K.M.O.B. event.
-Down to a half tank of gas
-Spending time with my girlfriend the next day,(thus a half tank is not enough for 2 consecutive trips from Riverside to Los Angeles)
-Given the fact that I'll be going to church with my girlfriend early sunday morning, a late night won't bode well, can't very well be falling asleep in church now can I? lol...
So yeah, guess I'll see you guys next september! Or at whatever subsequent ride becomes the heir apparent to C.R.A.N.K.M.O.B., (in terms of sheer popularity and ridership)

GEEZ, WHAT ARE YOU NEW?
Do not let factors of confluence stop you from attending this ride.
Do you understand that this is the last CRANK MOB 4 A FRICKING YEAR?!!?!?
-Down to a half tank of gas - SEARCH THE COUCH FOR CUSHION CHANGE
-Spending time with my girlfriend the next day,(thus a half tank is not enough for 2 consecutive trips from Riverside to Los Angeles) BRING HER WITH OR TELL HER THAT YOUR UNCLE FROM LA HAS PASSED AWAY AND THAT HIS FUNERAL IS SATURDAY NIGHT!!
-Given the fact that I'll be going to church with my girlfriend early sunday morning, a late night won't bode well, can't very well be falling asleep in church. CRANK MOB IS CHURCH. IT'S WOULD BE A SIN TO MISS IT.
BEG, BORROW, STEAL(WELL MAYBE...) BUT DON'T MISS THE MOST EPIC, CRAZY, COOL, FUN, FUNNER, FUNNEST, RIDE OF THIS YEAR!!!!!! (WOULD KINDA BE LIKE MISSING YOUR ONE AND ONLY PROM OR HITTING THE LOTTERY AND NOT CASHING IN THE TICKET!!!)
WE DON'T NEED NO STINKING BADGES, THIS IS CRANK MOB!!!!

Was Huskie Crank Dog responsible for all that styrofoam snow on Sunset? Because that was a pretty surreal experience, riding through the swirling drifts of styro-snow. 
I mean, it was kind of a minor environmental disaster, but, y'know, also pretty amazing...

Awesome ride as well as the whole night.  Rolling down Hollywood was epical.  Never done that 1000 strong and probably never will.  
Thanks Rich, 
MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!!!
