Spawn Song

Bachelorhood: the window of self determination between when a man leaves his mother's house and when he comes under the dominion of a wife. That window slammed shut on Spawn some time ago, since he is now in thrall to his little girl, his wife-to-be, and his mom on Mondays and Fridays. But, society is built on rituals, and if he is getting married then we are throwing him a bachelor party.

For obvious reasons, the Knott isn't an appropriate venue. However, to keep things simple we will still meet there at the normal time. The apres-ride party will be at an EID camp site. EID fees add up quickly, so we will try to bring as few vehicles into the site as possible. Camping gear, night time clothes, party hats, etc, will get put into a vehicle that will head to the camp site.  Bikes and riders will load into a shuttle vehicle. Expect a late night. I will do the dinner shopping on Tuesday, so please chime in early.

  2. Such a brilliant blog title. I am in for the ride part but have to miss the sleepover. If the ride is super long I probably won't eat at the site either, I have an early day Wednesday.

  10. Logistics:
    Meet at Knot Lot for carpool into EID. We can only bring four cars in for one site. If you aren't camping, or are sleeping in your car, you will probably be riding your bike back from the camp site.
