LOS ANGELOPES CANT READ LAWS.
ITS NOT A RIDE FOR PEOPLE TO READ CODES FOR COPS.
WE ARE AGILE AND HUNGRY.
WE ARE FERTILE AND HORNY.
WE HAVE POWERFUL HIND QUARTERS.
WE THROW DONUTS AT THEM.
AND THEN WE EAT THEM.
AND THEN WE EAT THE DONUTS.
WE CRASH THE LA MARATHON THE NIGHT BEFORE THE HUMANS RACE.
THE HUMANS ARE CLOSING THE STREETS AND SETTING US DANGERLOPES LOOSE IN OUR NATURAL HABITAT TO FEED AND TROUNCE AND POUNCE AND MATE IN THE LOS ANGELOPE CITY STREETS!
THE JOURNEY EAST BEGINS AT 9PM.
IT SHOULD END AROUND 2AM.
LA MARATHON BUFFET FEEDING TIME IS AT APPROXIMATELY 3AM.
EVERYONE NOTICE THAT ITS A ONE-WAY RIDE AND THE GROUP MAY NOT RETURN UNTIL 10 AM SUNDAY, IF EVER.
ALSO NOTICE THAT WE START AT THE MAR VISTA PARK AT PALMS AND BARRINGTON, NOT AT 7-ELEVEN.
IN MARCH
THE LOS ANGELOPES
LEAVE THE NEST.
FLY THE COUP.
HEAD EAST FOR THE SPRING TIME.
GET OUT YA DEN.
THE STRATEGY IS THIS MAR VISTA PARK
WESTIDE PAVILION
CENTURY CITY
RODEO DRIVE
BEVERLY CENTER
THE GROVE
PAN PACIFIC PARK
MELROSE STRIP
SUNSET STRIP
HOLLYWOOD STRIP
THEN BOMB ROSSMORE TO MEET UP FOR...
the crash of the LA Marathon. We ride the empty streets on the night before, then we f*n around til AMERICA'S FAVORITE BIKE RIDE at about 7:15am, mark our territory and make sure it lives up to its name...
i'm looking forward to crashing.....i'm really hoping that we can all crash around the same time...usually it just happens when I'm not expecting it, but this will be wicked sick mother when a group of riders all go down like someone hit the kill switch
Can I suggest a minor route change? If we were to head up Gardner between Melrose and Santa Monica Blvd, we would go right past Chez Ideasculptor, which would welcome being used as a party stop.
Chez Ideasculptor it is! I will revise it tonight.
I am excited about it and i dont even know what it is!
is it your work?! your house!? your father's favorite salloon?! your cousin's abandoned mine?! your auntie's sexy underwear factory?! what is it!?!? WHAT IS IT!?!?! WAAA!!!!?!?!?!
but where oh where could he possibly live?
does he squat in a forgotten car mechanic shop?
is there a ramshackle roof garden he perches from like a rogue eagle ready to strike the city?
did he hollow out the subfloor tank systems of a gas station and surface only for wolfpacks and den dinners?
WHERE!?! WAHT!??! WHAAAHAHAA!?!?!?!!??!?!?
7519 Willoughby - at Gardner. 'Tis a house, with lots of space for bikes to be parked in the front yard, and not so much space to cram a bunch of sweaty humans inside for dancing and pee stops and loud music and such.
Oh yeah, and I'm a total tard for wishing people would spell our deliberately misspelled screen name the way it's written but then incorrectly spelling Skidmarcus's name. My bad.
dude man dude man dude man dude man dude man dude man dude man dude man dude man dude man dude man dude man dude man dude man dude man dude man dude man dude man dude man dude man dude man dude man dude man dude man dude so excited
e-rock, i have a slightly bent 42t raleigh crank/chain ring for cottered crank/spindles. Would it fit? I ask that because It wont fit old american or french bike. It's english.
all, this weekend is going to be EPIC. I'm wearing my armor and bringing weapons. Heavy metal will be spinning in my head.
It might work, the bend might be a problem but I'm willing to give it a shot. If you can drop it off at Dan's and we'll fuss with it later, also, if you have the cotter-pins/nuts that would be super rad.
There's the Los Angelopes ride. It goes to the LA marathon. Which will already have the streets closed the night before. So are we riding it by ourselves that night? Or camping out until it actually starts on the morning of the 2nd, and riding with everybody else?
If you feel like riding fast, PLEASE do not attend this ride. This was a re-occuring problem on the last ride, so I have but one conclusion...
I am going to say this once, in all seriousness...
IF YOU REFUSE TO NOT KEEP A SLOW PACE,
I WILL SLASH YOUR TIRES ON A LOS ANGELOPES RIDE.
if there is one ride to be FUCKING SLOW, Los Angelopes is it. People work really hard to make fucked up pieces of metal and rubber ride-able, and this is the ride for them. If you feel the need, start another group that goes ahead. No problem.
Any chance to crash this?
1311 Abbot Kinney Boulevard, Venice, CA. 7-11pm
If anyone asks, you are with Marino.
I have to go but it's SO BORING WITHOUT YOU!!!
OK, so there are 3 rides all departing at 9pm. I'm usually a los angelope who happens to be riding to the Rocky Horror Picture Show on a tandem with a RHPS virgin on the back seat. What to do, what to do?!!! I'm so very confused.
Has anyone made an effort to figure out a spot where the rides can meet up? Los Angelopes hooked up with Double Trouble last month and it was much fun. The RHPS thing has allowed me to finally convince a dear friend to come out on a ride, and I want to impress her with the level of fun, hilarity, and general mayhem. Also, Los Angelopes is too much fun to miss, dammit!
And why aren't we riding tonite?
Cuz I drove through five counties yesterday and woke up at 4am this morning and I have to work again tomorrow, that's why. Thx 4 askin.
Keep going higher.. And 10%? You gotta be kidding me. Start with 2.5-3% and then only a percentage of that after you remove Broker and Corporation fees. Then, remove advertising, etc. you've spent and finally, thats gross, so we still gotta pay taxes on that.
Well...
2.5% OF 2 mil is the same as 10% half mil so I was right, right?
LOL
See you tomorrow, free drinks, free food, bring your checkbook. I'm selling nakid pictures of dingo.
Alex Thompson I highly recommend you wear a shirt with the words (in huge front) stating "SORRY for being a PRICK"...That just may save you an ass beating tonight....U-Lock...
RBI ,Hey isn't there a Mototrhead album you should be listening to or an album collection you should be sorting on a saturday night? Quit trying to figure me out, Son. Go to sleep peacefully and maybe tomorrow I'll forgive you for doubting me....
FUN CRASHING THAT SHIT, LOL I THOUGHT FOR SURE THAT WE WERE GOING TO BE HASSLED BY THE PROMOTERS. PIECE OF CAKE! THANKS GUYZ AND GALZ, FOR MAKING IT WORTH TALL THE FUN, HOW YOU FEELING B-RAD? LOL, THIS BOY CAN MAKE ANYBODY SMILE, AND I SAW SATEN TONIGHT. HMMMM.....INTERESTING TIME.
Los Angelopes was the funnest bestest crazy fun!! I am sooo tired now, and I am not allowed to hibernate until 1:30pm (human time) Don't they know Angelopes need to hibernate the 1st Sunday of the month!?. I am having trouble speaking human language today. Meeeew maaahaaaha RRRraaaarRRR Meer. blllaaagggrrrruufff! ahhh better.
I feel bad for pussing out at the Del Taco, but after that second tall bike tumble I was pretty much done for the night. Not to mention that I discovered I have a pea sized puncture wound in my left leg (how that happened is anyones best guess).
Either way, the ride rocked hard, especially riding through the grove??!?! like WWTTFF!!!!
Thanks for putting this on guys! I had my doubts that you could get that many people on the streets, but I was wrong. You guys must of had over 10,000 ridazz out there at the marathon!! What's your secret?
One of the best LA CMs, ever.. then Los Angelopes, then the Los Angelopes Marathon... seriously EPIC. I made it home by noon. Slept until 7. Ate breakfast, watch TV, now going back to bed.
There's a moment early on in that video where you can tell the camcorder dude knows he's being a douche. But he can't back down.
I wonder what they said to him on the other end of the phone. Something along the lines of "Sorry, sir, you're going to have to come up with an actual complaint before we send anyone over. Something a little stronger than 'There are some people hanging out in a parking lot, and they're having more fun than me. And I live in a big city but I demand the kind of silence found only in the suburbs. And I'm immensely irritating.' That's just not going to cut it, sir."
What's with these people that come out to confront big ass group of ridazz? It's like they perceives us to be one step above a harmless homeless person. There was also some dude that came out of his apt. when we on 6th street. He comes out carrying a stick like it's going to do some good against 20 of us. Yeah it rants on about making noise or some crap like that. This was much later than the dude above btw.
Random guy with piece of stick: "you guys are making too much noise!"
B-Rad: "Didn't you know there is a marathon happening??"
R.G.: "Yeah, at 7:30. It's 3 in the morning now, you douches!"
Damn e-rock. Get that hole looked at! If you were not already aware, Puncture wounds are pretty bad injuries for getting infected. Might want to make sure your tetanus shot is current!
Man, I thought I came home with some bad scrapes and bruises. Looks as if a midget went to town on the lower half of my legs with a thorny stick. I guess I can't complain after seeing that picture. :-P
