Tiffany is kind of necessary for this discussion as its really her event, but I believe its going to be the day/night before Halloween. (so the 30th I think)
We need to get a few people together and discuss/plan. Perhaps soon.
Until then, start thinking costume!!

You mean 31st right?
30th would be a Leb trailwork day.. but we are willing to give it up for this event. Most trailwork ends around this time anyway as it can be too frozen/cool to work (and gets dark too early)

Not a bad choice! I might be a candy striper http://www.forplaycatalog.com/store/Halloween_Costumes___Nurse_CostumesFP191?Args= for Jodi... or another rule is that I have to be whatever Tiffany was the previous year.
Yet another rule has me out on the trail doing spooky stuff when riders come by so you never know... :jumpy:

The MORC Patrol is putting together a fundraiser at Elk River October 28th.
A Halloween race and family haunted ride in the afternoon. Pumpkin carving and maybe a chili cookoff. Flier and details to come, finishing up the details as we speak. Cost should remain around $10 adults, $5 kids.
All proceeds go toward financing first aid gear for the patrol for the upcoming year.

I have suddenly gotten busy this week and will not have time to help prepare for any kind of Halloween event. Tiffany (Hellbender) was involved and said she could work with someone if they are interested in assisting.
Anyone interested?
It could be as simple as a group ride in costume, to something with a bonfire and treats, all the way to something with things to do along the trail....
The idea was to have this the Tuesday before Halloween, but there would be very little daylight depending on when it started.
I believe we have something going on John, just have to get in touch with Tiffany, not sure what we are doing yet. As far as costumes go...ugh, I'm not into it and its always tricky for me.

In view of having it on Tuesday and such, probably best to do a ride in costume and then go somewhere after, whether a bonfire or local establishment with a costume party...

Yup, in the works!!! Not a bad idea to have the group ride and go somewhere after since it is a work night. ;)
I would like to call up Doolittles on Cliff and see if we could reserve their patio since they have a bonfire there. Anyone game for that?

Did you guys ever decide on a date and place for this, I might make an appearance.
The date is October 30th (Tuesday) at 7:00 p.m. Please correct me Tiffany if I am wrong!
I've called up Doolittles (off of Cliff Road) and they are open until 1:00 a.m., and the fire will be going on the patio, so that is the after-ride destination.
You can't miss this ride everyone, it will be a hauntingly good time...omg that is so lame...

As a cyclist, you are much, much better equipped for Halloween than the average person. Why? Because you already wear outrageous costumes on a daily basis.
Think about it. Even though you are a (presumably) sane adult, you wear a shirt that would look much more at home on a superhero. You wear shorts that are much, much too tight, as if you were on your way to lead a jazzercize class. You wear a hat that belongs on an alien.
And, to top the whole look off, you wear what sound and look like tap-dancing shoes.
It’s no wonder, then, that cyclists tend to be pretty lazy about dressing up for Halloween parties. Instead of putting time and money into it, you just show up in the outfit you rode to the party in. Hey, why not? A little sweat completes the effect, right?
THEREFORE I AM GOING AS A MTN BIKER :D
Lezgo Cycling

Doping Cyclist: Dress up in full pro kit. Use a marker to draw needle tracks up and down one arm. Tie a length of surgical tubing above one elbow and leave a syringe sticking out of your vein. Wheel around an IV tower for the duration of the party. Stuff your jersey pockets with bottles of drugs. When anyone asks what / who you are, respond that you are a professional cyclist. When they ask what all the needles and drugs are for, say you have no idea what they’re talking about. No matter what, do not admit you have any drug-related items on hand.
Mountain Biker (If You're normally a Roadie): Prepare for the party by gaining 10Kg and getting 20-30 tattoos. Wear baggy pants -- baggy enough that they keep falling down. Arrive drunk at the party and continue to drink once you get there. Insist you have mad skillz.
Roadie (If You're normally a Mountain Biker): Prepare for the party by putting a stick in your butt. Wear uncomfortably tight cycling clothes for the party, drink nothing put thrice-filtered water and tell everyone exactly how many calories and fat everything they're eating contains.
Triathlete: Don't come to the party, because you've only done four workouts today and still need to get in one more and you don't want to break training, no matter what.
Recumbent Rider: Tape your glasses together, somehow manage to affix a pocket protector to your jersey, and loudly and insistently explain to all and sundry that recumbents are really much more comfortable and practical than "wedge" bikes. Talk a lot about prostates.
Recreational Cyclist: Wear street clothes with your right pant leg cuff completely greasy and shredded. Wear a bike helmet backwards and cocked to one side. Tell people that you're starting to bike again to get back in shape.
Commuter: Wear street clothes, but carry a backpack or messenger bag full of what are clearly stinky bike clothes the entire evening. Make your helmet hair extremely obvious. Keep looking for opportunities to casually introduce the fact that you are a bike commuter into every single conversation in which you participate.
Fixie / Track Cyclist: Dress the same as a road cyclist, but you must always either keep walking or -- if you must stay in one place -- you must trackstand by moving a couple inches forward, then back, then forward and back again.
See? Easy, effective, and totally transformational. Nobody will recognize you. Better start preparing that "Best Costume" acceptance speech now.
