nothing beats riding your bike while listening to ccr, except riding your bike in the woods while listening to ccr.

Ok, so I think I've waited 3 months for a worthy thread here in this forum. Finally.
I think there should be a whole play list of CCR. Fuck that. A CCR ride. Fuck that. A John Fogerty ride. Fuck that. A John Fogerty end up at a karaoke bar in J-Town and sing CCR tunes ride.
CCR...a man's band.

Just follow the bouncing ball...
"Well I've got to run to keep from hiding
And I'm bound to keep on riding
I've got one more silver dollar
But I'm not gonna let 'em catch me, no
Not gonna let 'em catch the Midnight Ridazz..."

For a long time, I have maintained that there needs to be more communal wine drinking in this world. The beatniks did it, the hippies did it, the cholos and Hells Angels of old did it, and it worked for all of them. And then, suddenly, in the--what, seventies? eighties?--everybody on the planet suddenly switched to cheap beer. Bring back cheap wine, I say! I whine, you whine, we all whine for cheap wine! Pass the bottle!
(Oh, and listen to CCR)

Interesting point, PC (yes, I'm old enough to remember some of those times you mention). In several ways, wine might have practical advantages over beer for cyclists: it doesn't taste better ice cold, can be agitated without exploding, can be seruptitiously carried in a water bottle and packs a more concentrated alcoholic whallop. Not that I want to encourage more reckless drinkin' and ridin' or anything.
Food (or drink?) for thought . . .

I've carried wine on several rides after getting the idea from kyber

Haha, yeah you guys....
On a few occasions I have carried around a bottle of cabernet. But, I admit that it might be a bad idea cause it caused superfish to get superdrunk and crash into stuff on his bomber pro.
Hold your line, and your liquor! ;)

I'm all for wine on a ride.
A good container for wine is a steel thermos that fits perfect in a water bottle holder. I got one at the Asian Market on Sunset in Echo Park for around $9. It also works good for beer but only holds 1 beer.

John Fogerty and C.C.R. are a combo to be reckoned with.
Big Bike Dan played "Fortunate Son" during the Riot On The Sunset Strip ride as we were crossing over Fairfax at Sunset. The timing was perfect.
Would love to hear any or all of the following tracks on a ride sometime:
"Keep On Chooglin'"
"Hey Tonight"
"Good Golly Miss Molly"
"Suzie-Q"
"Midnight Special"
"Down On The Corner"
"It Came From Out Of The Sky"
"Feelin' Blue"
"Born On A Bayou"
"I Heard It Through The Grapevine"
"Keep On Chooglin"' is a serious jam. Let me know if you need any of these and I'll hook you up when I get back to town in October.

the BEST wine for straight up getting drunk (if you can stomach the shit it's sweet as hell) is port, shit's about 18 percent, and cheaper than a quickie from the fluffer.
Course there's something about wine from a box that screams "I'm getting hammered" that just seems to make it taste better.
then again... if you're going to go down and dirty.. how bout some moler /dawes 20/20... crunk for cheap and sick to boot... oh yeah.
course the good wine, that stuff rocks... Im a good fan of a nice slightly chilled shiraz, or some pinot noir, but good wine makes me sleepy.

Naw, man, you have to have a big jug and pass it around. Sheesh. You guise are missing the whole goddamned motherfuckingassed point. It's all about the sharing of the wine, remember? "A loaf of bread, a jug of wine, and thou." Or
ye, I guess, since there are more than one of you (second person plural, nominative...right?).
PC09.14.07 - 3:20 am

...I mean, since
thou is nominative in the poem, right? Otherwise it would be a "loaf of bread, a jug of wine, and
thee," right? Right? Am I right? I'm not too sure of myself, here.

hence why I like port...
comes in a jug
too sweet to drink more than a glass or two worth
18 percent alky means you don't need most of a bottle to do so...
last time I drank some with friends, I passed out mid sentence whilst tying my shoes, and woek up the next day in the exact same position, sitting up with my back against a wall.... 3 of us worked on that bottle for 2 very drunken days (with a case or two of beer to help)

If you want to "keep it real" it's Gallo gallon glass jug wine! With/without pot smoking and with/without acid.

I'm all about wine sharing (and pot smoking and acid dropping for that matter), but I've seen what can happen to people on that cheap shit...they don't call 'em bum wines for nothin! I'll drink Peter Vela all night, but T-bird...night train...ACK!

I too just decided CCR is good riding music as well.
Got done with the final season of SG-1 on DVD.
The episode, "Unending", featured that track that talks about "seeing the rain".
Thought it went good with the time-dilation-bubble predicament the team got into.

Let the record reflect that I never suggested any of that bum wine. The delicious boxed wine that we drank at the Observatory that night was purchased at Whole Foods! WHOLE FOODS I TELL YOU!

so, you are saying that you were serving us organically grown bum wine? ;-) We appreciate you looking out for our well being.
