May 2012 Archives

The Crescent City Farmer's Market sets up in the same lot, from 3 to 7 on Thursday. So if you want some good local eats, come early, and stay for a ride.

You should find that cute little bikini, bring a towel, & a change of clothes if ya plan on swimming, cause a lot of us will get wet! Last year we had over 20 riders in bikini's.

The LAKEVIEW ride is a little longer of a ride, so we will be on a tighter time pace, like leaving closer to 7:30 & stops will be shorter.

There are only a few places to refuel, so PLEASE BE PREPARED! Bring extra of everything.  Some riders have coolers that they may let you keep drinks cold!

The last time we did this was July 28, 2011.  Some embarrassing pictures of those who attended can be found in last years event photo gallery.

As always;
- We put safety first
- We respect all drivers, no matter what they drive
- We obey all laws
- We leave NO TRACE! Seriously, we've been picking up after people too much.
- We leave no rider behind

Please;
- Bring a friend or two or three
- Bring something to share
- Bring a spare tube, some tools, and a pump
- Don't forget to lube your chain
- Bring plenty of Happy Thursdays!

Less Gears = More Cheers!

This weeks theme is "DUCT TAPE & FISHNETS"

We are meeting this Thursday, the 17th, at 12Bar at 7pm, then hang, eat, drink & be merry. Then around 7:30pm, we plan on taking the party to the streets of the CBD & FQ.

So grab a roll or two of duct tape {they make all kinds of colors} & start making your clothes. You can cover up say a pair of shorts or shirt or just make some out of the tape. Add in some fishnets & what you will get is one funky outfit! This theme should be easy enough for a lot of you to join in easy and cheaply!

12Bar is located at 608 Fulton Street, New Orleans, LA 70130.  Click Here for Google Map directions.
