By A Show Of Hands

You're awake. It's night time. Winter. But it's not terrible. It's a nice winter night. Crisp and clear.

In the yellow glow of the Parking lot it sounds like a cocktail party. Mostly they are drinking beer. Lots of smiles. Some amazement.

I apologize to the guy I ran into in the parking lot. I was wasted. Also, I shouldn't have been riding with a beer in one hand and a camera in the other. I'll have to show you the video sometime though.

By a show of hands, who danced their ass off last nite.

-No apologizing. Never look back. This is training. This is life. This is The Fucking Bike Club.

Are you ready to go to sleep?
No!
Party!
Then show me what you're made of
Move them bodies
All around!

I'm not going to bed (You're going to bed)
I'm not going to bed
I'm never going to sleep again

Who's going to bed? (You're going to bed)
No, I'm not going to bed
I'm never going to go to bed again

When I think about the stuff I could do
In all the hours of the white full moon
(Everybody go crazy)
I get excited when the number is late
But I get angry when it ends so soon
(I want you to dance)
Tell me what you did
Tell me what you said
Tell me every thought you got up in your head
(I said:)
“I'll go to sleep when I'm old or I'm dead”

I'm not going to bed (You're going to bed)
I'm not going to bed
I'm never going to sleep again

Who's going to bed? (You're going to bed)
No I'm not!
I won't, I won't, I won't ever go to bed again

Yeah!
Come on! Show me more sights!
Ooo yes, that's right!
Ooo yes, that's right!

(We're not going to bed)
No you're not
(We're not going to bed)
Sit up! Sit up!

(We're not going to bed)
Hold it down! Stand down!
(We're not going to bed)
Now move it all around!

If I can you my freedom
To go against my will
(Do it faster)
Then I will use my freedom
And you can bet I will
(Really get it now)
Tell what you did
Tell me what you said
Tell me every thought that you got up in your head
(I said:)
“I'll go to sleep when I'm old or I'm dead”

I'm not going to bed (You're going to bed)
I'm not going to bed
I'm never going to sleep again

Yasss!
Really move it now!
Good god!

Are you going to fall asleep at the table?
(I'm not)
Are you going to fall asleep watching cable?
(I'm not)
Are you going to let your body do a number on you
And give you shivers til you can't stand down?
Or are you going to hit the pavement
Smoking every joint in town?

I'm not

I'm not going to bed (You're going to bed)
I'm not going to bed
I'm never going to sleep again

Who's going to bed (You're going to bed)
No I'm not
I won't, I won't, I won't ever go to bed again

I'm not going
I'm not going to bed (Going to bed)
I'm not going to bed again

Not to be a dick, I had a great time on the fiasco, and I love AWK, but I don't think it was good enough to quote one of his songs in its entirety in the comments section of the blog.

AWK speaks for FBC as a whole.

Not true, the mob speaks for itself. It says "we don't give a damn about others, we can take up the whole road when and where we want. We can litter and trash where ever we please." The mob has spoken both here with its ignorant comments and irrelevant statements online. This unruly group says what it wishes also by the actions it takes. Those who organize condone these actions by idly standing by and in some cases instigate a good portion of the shit talk, name calling and asshole-ness that occurs. Hey wait a minute, isn't being an asshole breaking one of the two rules?

Anonymous commenter at 3:16PM,

you make my pants tight for all the right reasons.

John Waters once said there are two kinds of people in this world, "my kind of people" and assholes.

The balance has been tipped in this group to the asshole side for too long!

You're right! This group and its events have not been as much fun. It was so much better when you knew a good number of others on the road, in the cold of winter or in costume or only their underwear, at an odd hour having a blast just riding bicycles in the moonlight. On the last FMF I was on I knew very few others, My first one was number five, yes about fifty fiasco's ago.

It is so sad how fantastic this club and the fiasco's used to be. I do read about those lately and their enjoyment, it was so much better before, (imo).

Why else would many of the early LMFL's not be at the flagship events of this club, no longer ride or easily find something else to do? Why else would those who take over the reigns and organize their own ride either do so only secretly by not announcing them or stop doing them altogether? (I really miss J.U.'s drive-in ride)

But please do not let me stop any of you. Go on and do as you wish. Make all of the derogatory comments towards me for speaking my mind here, it won't matter. I expect every name in the book, lets see if some appear that I don't. Go ahead and only consider yourself. Please continue being who you are even if it is an asshole, nobody can MAKE you act differently. You go on riding YOUR bicycle because I am riding this one of mine,









somewhere else.
