He was a GOD circa 1979-81 for my friends and i. I still have the original DM Guide, Player's Handbook and Monster Manual somewhere in my parent's basement back east.
JC, what was your favorite Monster? (geek time...)
The Reverend Dak J. Ultimak and members of Tren Way Battle Gang are currently planning to host this D&D Ride in June. (IT'S NOT JUST A THEME) You will actually be doing stuff as well as riding. Sorry, we're weird like that.
Hope you can make it to the ride. It will be posted soon, I think...
I was never able to imagine a game of D&D, I just used to thankgod we had video games growing up. Otherwise I would have had to talk to real people those last two years of HS I played Anarchy Online.
I hate kobolds! My lowly 1d4 was no match for them when I had the unfortunate luck of being separated from my party and a gang of em came by. Of course I think my brother did that shit on purpose.
I used to have all the pc games and played them on the Tandy 1000. And a lot of the books from TSR. Im a turbo nerd. muahahaha!
Got into those after the Tunnels of Doom phase on the ole Ti 99/4 (I had all that shit in the picture)
MR D&D ride would kick ass. I can only image the costumes to come out of that ride. I found a good resource online for PC Handbooks, DM Guides, etc. all on PDF format if we want to prepare some of this for a D&D game during/after the ride.

The site has D&D, AD&D 1E, and AD&D 2E (my personal favorite).
I could probably download all the cartoons from the 80's and we could watch those too if we could get the bikerwave opened for projector use. (or another location)
Let's do this ride! When is it!?!?!?! I will bring my long sword +1 that does 1d12 against large creatures.. nah fuck that. I will bring my bastard sword that does 3d6 against large creatures. Since it a vorpal blade I can behead and instantly kill any creature on a roll of 19 or 20 on my d20 die. Also since I am Fighter/mage, I will bring my familiar. He is a quasit! He has a poisous touch! My Boots of Speed that add +2 to my AC will help in my bike riding too! My THACO will be uber!
So who is in?!?! Huzzah! We will fire Magic Missles into the darkness as we ride!
Not being a D+D'er myself, I sent this thread to a friend who lives out of town and is a fan of RPG. This was his reply (most of which is Greek to me):
if you are going on this ride may i suggest being a dwarf bard/rogue. maybe 3 levels of bard for every 1 level of rogue. this will give you a really high spot and search which i can only imagine would be useful, especially at night (hence the Dwarf), furthermore as a bard you will essentially be able to control your entire party with one little song (may i suggest proficiency in singing so you don't have to carry an instrument), which in this case is no small feat considering the number of people on these rides.

A huge, ancient, carnivorous dinosaur from the swamps at the heart of Republican country, not unlike Godzilla in appearance and wrinkled integument, McCain has seen better years. Nevertheless he can breathe fire and threaten to stomp flat the capital city of any country that Fox News disapproves of with the best of them.
The biggest danger in facing off against a McCain is that he might be under the mind control of the Svengali-like Cheney, Prince of Darkness. In this case, he is likely to be lethally aggressive and even more unpredictable than usual.
