Let me just say it now while it's fresh. The FBC is a great thing that just depends on fun loving people going for a bike ride when the moon is full. When the weather is good and 5,000 people show up it's crazy. When it's 10:15pm in February and the frozen grains of sand that are falling from the sky burn your face on the way down the Mackland hill, and both sets of your pants legs are soaked by the bottom, it's even better. It's better because nineteen people drink seventeen $5 dollar pitchers of beer to the thirteen good songs on the bullshit internet jukebox at Foley's and get so wet on the ride home they might as well have jumped in a swimming pool. I love this club so much that I have to retire from making spokecards and blogging. If I don't we'll officially be in a greatest hits era. No matter what happens on June 23, 2013 if you love riding bikes show up at Turtle Park and go for a bike ride. On the ride be sure and say hello to someone you don't know.

ReplyDeleteYou're a grand old flag,
ReplyDeleteYou're a high flying flag
And forever in peace may you wave.
You're the emblem of
The land I love.
The home of the free and the brave.
Ev'ry heart beats true
'neath the Red, White and Blue,
Where there's never a boast or brag.
Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
Keep your eye on the grand old flag.

Lee this is Miss Kelly Broussard. I moved to New Orleans last month and FBC was one the things that kept me in STL for so long. Thank you so much for such an awesome thing. Love your bejeweled hoodie and I will do my better to make it back to St. Louis for that undie ride. My buddy Yon is very concerned. Much Love
