East Bay Bike Party June: Your Local Pirate Quest

Hey there Bike Party. I’m Curtis your ride leader for this Fridays ride. What I have in mind is something I am calling Pirate Quest.

WHEN: Friday June 12, 2020, thoughout the evening
WHERE: Your local streets!

I’m asking all you bike pirates out there to put on your finest pirate ware and go out and ride your bike. No need to Bart to a starting place. Start from home and ride in search of other bike pirates who are out and about.

Snap a picture of the other bike pirates you run into throughout the evening and post them to this event page. The Facebook Event: https://www.facebook.com/events/698819857354193/ Feel free to comment on this WordPress post with your pics of the evening!

The one capturing the most pirates wins 1st prize (TBD).

A group photo only counts as one sighting, so individual pictures are the most value. If you get a picture of me, you get five bonus points.

I will be roaming around Oakland/Berkeley area visiting regular bike party stop sites, Yes I will have the green flag.

I hope to see you out there!

A NOTE ON BIKE PARTY AND THE CORONA VIRUS:
YES we are riding. BUT please all be aware of the preventitive health measures that will keep our community safe.
DO NOT:
Shake hands- find a less handsy way to say hell to all your bike party peeps
Share bottles, beer, food, joints, cigarettes, vape pens, etc with others
Keep enough of a distance from folks during the ride to not accidentally swap bodilly fluids, keep enough distance from folks at the party stops and dance floors too.

We know this all is unfortunate but if we all do our part things will be OK. We will update and monitor the situation re: Group gatherings accordingly as things indeed are changing fast.

OTHERWISE, STANDARD BIKE PARTY RULES APPLY!
Bring your lights, locks, layers. Plenty of snacks, water, and libations (For YOURSELF ONLY- DO NOT SHARE!)

Stay to the Right
Stop At LIghts
Ride Straight
Don’t Hate
Pack your Trash
Don’t get Smashed (Or coronavirus’d)
