Choppercabras 12th annual Spring Thing
Thread started by rev106 at 04.17.13 - 6:49 pm

Choppercabras 12th Annual Spring Thing!!



Before we get into details I’d like to explain a few things.



Respect my hood.



I’ve been dealing with some angry neighbors in the last few years, if you want the events to continue it’s up to you to self-police and be on good behavior.



1. No tagging. This includes chalk. Leave the chalk and paint at home.

2. Please throw out your trash in a trashcan, not in someone’s yard. Do I really even need to bring this up? I guess I do because it’s been a problem.

3. Don’t go messing with the neighbors houses or yards, don’t sit on their grass etc, it’s not a park.

4. No offence but when the event is over, please go home or go to the bar that shares a parking lot with me.



I have to work here all the rest of the time the events are not going on, and if you weren’t aware, I’m running a business. I’ve been doing this event before most of you were off your training wheels and I’d like to keep doing it, please be respectful when you show up and we can all have a good time.



Thanks!!!







Where: Atomic Cycles 17322 Saticoy st. Van Nuys, CA 91406 (818) 609-0113



When: Sunday, May 26th, Noon Sharp!



Choppercabras 10th annual Spring Thing is a bicycle event unparalleled in all of Los Angeles, perhaps all the globe! Bicycles bashed, blood spilled, hot dogs eaten, 2 wheeled mayhem unlike anything you’ve ever seen! (unless you’ve been to one of these before.) And it’s all free! Did I mention hot dogs?



What you will need:



You ready to have fun
A bicycle in good working order
You dressed up as your favorite science fiction character. Dress up, it’s more fun.


A note on the time. Do your best to arrive on time or you’ll miss out on all the fun, we don’t wait for you, as there will be hundreds of people there on time ready to ride. We start at Noon, not hipster time, but real time.



How to get here:



By Car:



101 Exit Balboa, head North until you hit Saticoy, make a left go till you see Louise, park. The event location is ½ block west of Louise in the south side of Saticoy. Parking in the back will be taken up by event stuff, best to park on the street.



From 118 as above but south on Balboa, make a right on Saticoy.



From 405 exit Sherman Way go West until you hit Louise, North on Louise as above.



By Bike:



Take Orange line to Louise, North on Louise until you are at Saticoy, go west on Saticoy, follow the noise and smells, you’re there!



By Plane:



Look for mess of bikes, parachute into Ralph’s parking lot, and watch out for Coldstone patrons, they may eat you.









As always you get some free shwag at Choppercabras events.



Buttons



Spoke Cards



Route Maps



Events:

Space ship race

When Robots Attack

Space Battle

When Robots Attack:

Robots try and destroy the humans, who will win?

Space Ship Race

Two seater bikes covered in tin foil because tin foil = space, dude. Race to the end.

Space battle:

Bicycles with metal rams on them, the only rule: win. Super violent, super fun. A Choppercabras Staple.





*Special bikes will be provided for these events. You still need a bicycle for the ride on the ride.



The Ride:



We will do a few miles at a leisurely pace through the mean streets of the San Fernando Valley. We ride a few miles, we go slowly, and we try and keep the ride together. We like to see all riders occupy the right lane only of the street so we can co-exist with traffic and maximize our fun. The cause if fun, pick fights with people in cars on your ride, not ours. This is a cruise, a put, a crawl, not a race just so you know. When we get done we will be back at Atomic Cycles for the bb-q. Did I mention free hot dogs?



The BB-Q:



Back to base for some dogs and conversation, now time to relax. Dogs are free until they run out. There is a bar in the same parking lot, a liquor store and grocery across the street just so you know.



The End:



Hang out as much as you like, but the show is over folks! Help cleaning up is always appreciated.





Notes/FYI/etc.



Show up with a bike ready to ride, any kind of bike is welcome. Do not show up with a basket case or a bike that needs major repairs, you may not get them.



I do not loan bicycles for the ride. Bring a bike that is rideable to the ride, save yourself the embarrassment and be ready.



Dress up in costume. It’s ok; you’ll still be “cool” if you dress up.



Show up on time. Noon. I recommend not partying until 5 am the night before if you want to make it on time. I’ve heard all the excuses and I don’t care because it is you who will miss out.



Filmers:



I want copies. Feel free to photograph for personal use. Professional use, get in touch first. I want copies.



The Ring of Death.



The Ring of Death or “ROD” is the ring of car tires/cones that the events take place in. Entering the ring of death means you are accepting that you may get hurt, will most likely get hurt, and are not going to cry to me later about your injuries. If you jump in the ring to take a picture, you may get hurt, you may damage your gear. If you find this too dangerous, then by all means: STAY ON THE SAFE SIDE OF THE ROD! You have been duly warned.



Audience Participation of aforementioned events.



If you want to participate in an event you may understand that you may (well, for sure) come under some form of bodily harm. There have never been more serious injures than some cuts and bruises but just so you know, these events are a bit rough. No kids may do an event but the ride. Sorry.



If you are a spectator and interfere with any of the events, you are accepting the fact that the event participants can and may hurt you. In other words: if you want to join in, then do so. If not, watch, but not both.



Do not throw the car tires. Don’t. It breaks up the action.



The list of Yes!



Can anyone come?

Is it ok for kids?

Can I help?

Can I bring some drinks, food for everyone?

Can I have some fun?



The list of NO’S!



Can I borrow a bike?

Can we ride scooters, vespas, mini bikes on your ride?

Do we need to belong to the Choppercabras to ride?

Can I film your event without asking first?





Any other questions can be directed to Paul (818) 609-0113 rev106@yahoo.com

Another bad ass Choppercabras event. valley girls kicken ass and not taken names in the events. Good to see some face I haven't seen in a while, Troy, JJ, Scano (yeah yeah) and wife, Black Betty and common law wife, The DJ and his sidekick, BBD, TeaBag, and the ingredient that makes beer great. Great food and drinks, Love the beans and lemonade! Also appreciate all the work chopping the onions and tomatoes and grating the cheese (I know that isn't easy work but it made the food experience that much nicer). Donnie Pepper love sandwiches. To see my regulars is always a LOVE FEST. You know who you are and why are you so special to me. Then you had guys my age or older trying to fight..... please leave that home next time. Great route, fun get together. Thank you Man in the crazy chicken suit for all your hard work.

+1 on the smoke machine. That added all sorts of extra fun and mystic to the event.

That an idea for future theme for costumes 80's music act. Maybe you'll get one person dressing up for that idea as oppose to seven people for space/scientific character.

or an even better theme to get everybody to dress up, "current day bicyclist"

Getting people to dress the part has always been a problem, people are lazy I guess. I was thinking for the Halloween ride to do a Superhero/Supervillian theme, spandex being in easy reach to most of our clan.

Rollers, thanks for the snaps! I can't wait to see them!
