I was truly humbled when people thanked and congratulated me on the party friday night.
All I could think about was all the amazing people that helped make this happen.
I probably left somebody off this list, if you know who speak up and give them their props!
There is some people who will never get mentioned because the things they did were minute, but it is all those little things, the amazing community we have, that made this ride//party amazing. We could have partied in a vacant lot, drank biked in beer, and danced to sounds BBD's bike trailer and it still would have been a great party. But here is to the people who pitched in to take this ride/party/ toy drive to the next level:
Aimee at New Belgium Brewing- Hooked us up with free beer
Alex Tallcans - Planned Valley Ride
Annie (meandmyubluebike) - Heled it down all night on the turntables (her Ridazz DJ debut)
Aurisha and LACBC worked with NBB to get us the free beer.
Barleye - Planned Westside ride, served beer, helped with cleanup/ recycling.
Chiparaki Crew:
-
Fabian & Dara -Owners of Chiparaki, away on vacation, these awesome people still let us have our party - beyond generous.
-
James D. - Stepped and spoke up for us. His willingness to be there for the party is one of the crucial reasons we got to use the space.
-
Alf - Was there the whole time helping out from planning to set up to party to clean up.
-
Taylor - Helped with set up before anybody got there.
The Chipiraki crew was also busting out on the VJ mixer ... but it was hard to see who was doing what behind the projection screen.
Danny Zuko - Did thr LB ride and saved the day last minutes getting the silkscreen burned in a pinch! Also lamanated teh All City Spoke Cards.
Deesimple - bought a Keg and donated it to the Ridazz
Drooby - Served beer
Eddieboyinla - Helped clean up/ took in recycling.
Eric Hair - Looked For Spaces
Fran - Served beer.

Funderstorm - Awesome surprise performance!
Imahynna - Photobooth, cleanup, and radness!

Jimmy the Screen Printer - Showed up on a minute's notice and busted out tons of shirts!
Joe Borfo - Was on call to help.
Krystal and Kristel of Save NASA- They found the location! (I hope I spelled your names right)
MOM Ridazz + Raquel- Planned NELA Ride
Marino - Hooked up the executive porta-potties. The most common compliment I heard all night was "nice bathrooms".
Mr. Rollers - Planned bike district ride, helped with cleanup
Ms.Stephanie - Hooked us up with the alliance for childrens rights.
Substance Djs (Cabhauler + Brian) - Rocked an awesome dance set!
The Alliance for Children's Rights - Collected the toys and shared them is LA Legal Aid
