Those ramps are fun multipliers.
Thank you Andrew from K-town for having extra chain links on your friggin wrist, you saved our asses.
CrankMobile rode back to the westside with no escort on Wilshire/Santa Monica. It was a long haul, kind of painful, but fun.
This lady at the pool today was like "What's that on your head? Is it, a bike?!?" Thx for the sharecut Richie, it'll be good watercooler talk on Monday.

Thank you to the guy who patched my tube while i ran around pan-pacific park too inebriated to uphold my dignity.

Definitely an epic trip, indeed.
The fly-off with the recumbent was an ass-rocker, as were the various sub-routes used to achieve our desired points of disembarkation.
Only problem for me last night was my friend Mike eating shit on my Hummer and smashing my ding-a-ling bell to smithereens!!!!
He doesn't really ride as often as I make it down these events.
But, withstanding, it was well worth the car-rental and escorting July(?), jonnyrodriguezboy, and franz to their disembarkation point and blowing the horn at 7AM was priceless!!!!

THANK YOU THANK YOU MOB masters for putting so much into this! Kieron, Richie, Mihai; you guys really make it happen.
Everyone else, thanks for being so beautiful and fun. I never feel like I deserve your awesomeness.
XOXOXOXOXOXO!
Best CRANK mob since my first! (last october, which, as it was my introduction to such levels of awesomeness, can never be outmemoried.)

As Jonnyboy said at one point during the night: "BEST CRANK MOB EVER!" (Although I'm sure every C-Mob is the best ever) I forgot to mention that I set a record. Two tallbikes, bikecar, AND I got handcuffed by Eddieboy. Oh shizz.

Going right off of Chynna's post:
At the Subway prior to the start point, Richie was discussing with me that there is this unspoken rule about C.R.A.N.K. MOB-
Every CRANK MOB has to out-do the last one. It's not like this rule is stated specifically, it is just understood by the MOB mentality. It is true, every CRANK MOB is the best one ever.
Last night and into this morning.... simply incredible.

I just woke up... Umm thank you Studiodrome without you most of my brains would be spread out on the Albertsons parking lot. Also thanks to the guy who did the thing to the other guy who hit me. Thanks for the tube, who gave it to me I may have been drunk at that point..
THANKS TO SPOOK FOR bEING SPOoKY!

I've got the fabric strap and belt, it's just the U-lock that's missing. Fell out of the bike-car.

ohnoitschlo: you're oh so welcome. totally worth the remainder of your tallboy. and thank you for getting naked. i just wish the idea had taken off.
T.H.A.N.K all you crazy bastards for showing me that LA knows how to do it right. I shall bring the wisdom i have learned back to portland, to teach mad MOB skills to other mad mobbers.
oh, and thanks tallcans4tallbikes for letting me try your shit. here's my baby, in her second flesh (she now has all the stays and is prettier). if you're ever in p-town, gimme a shout (just, you know, into the sky. i'll come.

I hear Paul B. is the one who put a lot of work in on those ramps. Jesus I can never get enough of those.
Paul along w/ Gern (of BikeRoWave fame) are the ones who secretly and uber-ninja like drive around and drop off the ramps at locations we hit during rides. Thank you thank you thank you thank you.

Rad ride! Had the best party fun time! I hope everyone that ate it are okay and healing up.
On our way home a black mustang flew past us and plowed into the median on Santa Monica tearing down light poles, signs and trees, and of course completely f'ing up the car. There was crap all over the road!
As we approached the bloodied driver and passengers were trying to push the car off the road explaining in slurred speech that "They were cool... don't worry about us... we're cool!" F THAT! We called the cops and and told em that some drunk driver almost hit a group of 15 cyclists and crashed their car and probably need an ambulance.
Just wondering if anybody saw the aftermath on their way back to the start. Crazy shit... be careful everybody!

Oh yeah, and then franz decided to mimick some crazy lady dancing in the street in front of Canters.
Seems like the MOB don't stop, can't stop, won't stop, never stop.
Just 26 more days, or something 'til we could all C.R.A.N.K. it out again.
And this time, I'll have a larger unit on my bike!!!

There you have it folks, more proof that Santa Monica Blvd is not the place to be riding on late nights. It has more inebriated idiotic drivers than any other major road I've been on. I'm glad you guys (and anyone else that took Santa Monica home that night) made it home safe.
