You have seen me mention that bicycling in the Desert is a major leisure sport and pass time. One very committed group to cycling that has eluded me until now is the Desert Stahlight Ridazz.  I thought I would post for you their own desktop publishing challenged announcement regarding an up coming Halloween ride.

Stahlight Ridazz is slow, complaint free, and goofy.  No one is left behind.

Stahlight Ridazz is NOT for training or speed.

Stahlight Ridazz is a Sneakers and Jeans ride for the Non-Lycra inclined.

When someone roars “Stahlight Ridazz,” you respond, “Ride On!!”

 

Consider: Riding a bicycle is a sensual alternative to the "boy in the bubble" car voyages that hide everything good that a city has to offer. It is an experience in sights, sounds, thrills, physical activity, and local economy that could never be replicated by a night out at the casino. Stahlight Ridazz is about riding bicycles, hanging out, acting silly, being whimsical, speaking up, and having a good heart. Come out and enjoy a relaxed pace bicycle ride at the end of a week of computers, dispatchers, rude customers, corporate politics and all the other crap that comes with living in a world of sad clowns. Banish the clowns! Send in the Ridazz.

Moving forward: We're inviting everybody to join in the fun that the, Ridazz, are creating. We want to produce our own ridezz, routezz and good timezz. We are starting a recurring ride. Could be a bar/art crawl or even, possibly, a one timer in the daylight.

It's our ride. “Ride On!!”
