YOU'RE at the SOURCE for information about CHOPPERNITE, the Freakbike Nation Pages!
PLEASE feel free to TELL OTHERS about the ONLY TRUE source for Freakbike Choppernite information. Please LINK to this. We don't need the traffic, but we need the CORRECT information to travel out. Go anywhere else, and view it suspect.
Our next Choppernite is Choppernite #74,
The Nitemare Before Christmas Choppernite
Wednesday, December 15th 2021.
We will not leave before 7:30pm.
You do NOT have to have a chopperbike bike or even a FREAKBike but it MIGHT HELP! ANYone on ANY bike is welcome but FREAKBIKES HIGHLY encouraged. It's not unheard of for Freakbikes to get preferential parking, Freakbike rider only minigames etc. Don't have one? Borrow one. Buy one. Or, WHOA(!) MAKE one!
Helmets are HIGHLY encouraged but kids under 16 need a helmet as required by law.
LIGHTS ARE REQUIRED as per sate law when riding after dark. It WILL be dark for our return so math says LIGHTS ARE REQUIRED.
Brakes on your bike HIGHLY encouraged. If you INSIST on riding brakeless, PLEASE ride in the back. (Fixed, I’ll call 'with brakes' because I know. Flintstone brakes (aka:shoes) are NOT brakes.) And if you insist on doing tricks on a group ride, you need to grow up. It's not the night for it.
We meet on Washington Rd, in the street. A little South of the corner of Washington Rd and Southern Blvd. It's a very calm street.
No parking at the Greek Church. Street parking is ok, but none of the lots, gravel, paved, front, back, etc. Through NO fault of our own. And they asked nicely so I say we oblige out of the respect they have given our group over the years.

The Freakbike Nation Pages is the authority, not G00gle, Phacebook, Yamoo, Miami Blog Scene etc. Other places might be right, but THIS is never wrong.

Is the ride still on tonight due to the weather?

[tiii]

Yes.

The last time weather stopped a Choppernite, it was a hurricane.

No secret. 
My critics would tell you I WANT TO DISMANTLE DESTROY RUIN ALL that is wonderful in Choppernite. 
Fck em. 

While it was an intimate ride, we absolutely had fun. I've never complained about what some couch potatoes* would call a "Low" turnout. It's when it's just me that shows up enough times, that i need to introduce some hard questions. 
 
Carlos won our minigame. He was the most prepared. Thanks to Bicyclery for the hook up for rewarding prepared riders!!!! 


And our winner of the Son Of Bike Of The Nite Cup chosen by last Choppernites winner Tina, It's Christian on a John Good built Freakbike. Awwww it looks good. I don't know if it looks stronger than it is cool, or cooler than it is strong, and I grade like a dXck.



When it's just me, I scratch my head like a drugged gorilla. When it's 2+ riders for Choppernite, I enjoy the opportunity to ride next to a friend who appreciates Simple People on Stupid Bikes. So when it looks like NO ONE ELSE WILL show up, these are actually unrequested small surprises of the cruise we all don't realize we really left the house for. In the name of social media (true garbage), if you need a lot of people for YOU to show up, I'll speak for my driving Freakbike Militia, STAY HOME. I'd rather show up and ride by MYSELF than ride with 50 people happy to be with the [whatever crowd]. (trust me, there's NO "crowd")

Want to ride? Ride. Want to stay home? you may.

P.S. We don't "WANT", "NEED" you to join us, we WELCOME you to join us. Let the difference sink in, then update your calendar. 

*Couch potatoes update an internet thing blog, share newsgroup {WHATEVER} but DON'T participate. Not participating is ok, but when THEY purport to be a source or authority on information and they're actually not even sourcing the REAL info with nerd links ... ... ... (sad face) they're actually Freakbike Militia rodeo clowns. They do nothing but distract you. Life lesson: question your sources.
