Every Thurs for us here in Boulder.robwh9 said:Murphy Ave in Sunnyvale. Several hundred people. Looks like they were having a great time, and the crowd cheered.
I didn't have my camera, so I couldn't get a pic. And I didn't have my bike so I couldn't join them. Oh well.
Edit: They rode by again and again!

How many participate?
And I thought no one knew what a 29er was in CA.francois said:didja see my hot august lights?
That's too big in my opinion. When we got over 1000 here in Boulder we took steps to break it up into smaller rides. The paths and roads just couldn't accommodate that many riders. We'd spend the whole night inching along the paths waiting for people. And in every big group of people you have your share of a-holes just out to cause trouble. With larger numbers this group gets bigger and bigger.francois said:3000+ and growing. Growing out of control![]()
I read some of the comments from riders...don't think I'll be joining them anytime soon.Bocephus Jones II said:That's too big in my opinion.

what are you running for the red taillight?francois said:didja see my hot august lights?
Sadly we had/have some of the same issues on our Thursday cruiser ride. It's the worst in summer when all the kids join the ride. There are plenty of really cool kids, but way too many that just think it's a big party. They get wasted and crash into everyone--you end up feeling like a babysitter. Almost none of them have lights and they tend to leave their trash all over the place whenever we stop.snapdragen said:I read some of the comments from riders...don't think I'll be joining them anytime soon.
That is a Dinotte 300L. 300 lumens and the battery is in between the rails of the seat. Very visible with disco flash modes available.PaleAleYum said:what are you running for the red taillight?
