The Passage of a Few People Through a Rather Brief Moment in Time #434: Chilly Winds Don\'t Blow
12.20.17
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.
Started by user nathansnider and user theroyalacademy.
It meets every Wednesday at 8:30pm at California Donuts #21.
(3rd and New Hampshire)
We ride at 9pm.
On the ninth year of this bike ride, you might expect:
- more inconvenient passageways
- more full moon picnics
- perhaps more \\\"cover\\\" versions of other peoples rides, performed with amateurish enthusiasm
- certainly more amateurish enthusiasm
- disorientation
- reorientation
- pool halls
- bowling alleys
- dance parties
- karaoke
- imaginary histories
- scavenging for fun and sustenance
- more geocaching
- more oblique strategies
- more Oulipian constraints
- traffic median tea parties
Furthermore:
- A medium pace (maybe not for beginners; certainly not a hustle)
- Were not in a rush; we don\\\'t need to run every light.
- Maybe some distance;maybe some hills
- Victory donuts!

This week:
Chilly Winds Don\\\'t Blow
So it seems that winter is finally back, and our hot, dry winds have been replaced by those that are anything but. We\\\'re a bit spoiled, of
course, lamenting the fact that we actually have to deal with cooler weather in mid-December, but lament we will. Fortunately, we have
the technology to tell us where the winds are the least windy and the temperatures most temperate. So join us tonight (the second
longest of the year, it so happens) as we go where the chilly winds (hopefully) don\\\'t blow.
(~27 miles; pretty flat)
NOTE: We will be taking next week off because it\\\'s the holidays, and it\\\'s nice to have a week off once in a while. Also, there is no ride the
following Wednesday (January 3), because that will be the week of our next weekend ride. Thus, after tonight, there is no Passage ride
until Saturday, January 6. Adjust your calendars accordingly.
