what happened to all of them?
do they still come on the rides or did they like move out of town or something?

They're all still around, and they all still ride but you rarely if ever see them on a group ride. When we talked about it, they basically sounded burnt out, and I ended up heavily editing down that section of the interview because on-screen it sounded like they were down on the current Midnight Ridazz but it didn't sound that way at all when we were talking. It's one of those things where how it sounded wasn't how it read and I didn't want to leave anyone with the wrong impression (yes, they had a chance to review the interview before it went up and they didn't put any "red ink" to that section of the interview)
But of course, there's a lot of Originalzz that still do ride. Check out Roadblock with the skateboard at the picture at the top of the post (which of course I "stole" from the About the Ridazz link above).

Like a lot of things in our society, women give us life, nurture our souls and get mostly ignored and disrespected. See the thread on "Girls on Bikes". Stupid sexist misogynist adolescent crap. If you were to shout out, "Midnight Ridazz" during any ride today, what would you hear??? Nothing....
Bring the gals back??? Bring back the soul & spirit of the Ridazz... Hell yeah....
