The Passage of a Few People Through a Rather Brief Moment of Time #418 - The Ultimate Destination
08.30.17
One or more persons during a certain period drop their usual motives for movement and action, their relations, their work and leisure activities, and let themselves be drawn by the attractions of the terrain and the encounters they find there. It’s a bike ride. Organized by user nathansnider and user theroyalacademy. It meets every Wednesday at 8:45pm at California Donuts #21. We ride at 9pm. While we endeavor to return before the last red line trains (around midnight), it is generally not possible. Please plan accordingly. On this bike ride, you might expect: - inconvenient passageways - oblique strategies - Oulipian constraints - disorientation - reorientation - “cover” versions of other people’s rides, performed with amateurish enthusiasm - amateurish enthusiasm - playgrounds, pool halls, bowling alleys, karaoke - geocaching - full moon picnics - traffic median tea parties - rivers that no longer exist - smell tourism - Couchwick v2.0 Furthermore: - usually 20-35 miles - usually some hills - a medium pace (probably not for beginners; certainly not a hustle) - few stops, short stops - but we’re not in a rush; we don’t need to run every light - victory donuts! ----------------------------------------------------------------------- This week: The Ultimate Destination We have visited a lot of interesting places on the ride over the years, but we realize that we have never actually visited the Ultimate Destination* in town. This week, we correct that oversight. (~28 miles; a couple miles of off-roading, including probably some hiking; a respectable hill) * We realize that this may sound like a euphemism for death but, worry not, we assure you we are indeed referring to a physical location. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- For the latest information about each week’s ride, join our mailing list: groups.google.com/group/the-passage-announcements For more information about past rides, visit our website: ThePassageRide.com For miscellaneous images, information, and links, take a look at our tumblog: thepassageride.tumblr.com ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Discuss: http://midnightridazz.com/forums.php?topicId=19218
Those who believe that the particulars of the problem are permanent want in fact to believe in the permanence of the present society.
