Moonlight Ramble - St Louis
Anyone going to the Moonlight Ramble in St. Louis this year?
This is my first year biking, and for some reason these "riding in the middle of the night with a bunch of people" things really appeal to me. DP won't officially register until she knows exactly what route and what neighborhoods we'll be riding through (she used to work EMS in St. Louis city before she moved out here to the middle of nowhere). I keep telling her it can't be that sketchy if so many people are showing up.
Anyway, if we do end up going - which is probably going to happen - it would be really cool to meet up with some other TE'ers.
We're also doing the Lenexa Midnight Bike Ride on July 15th.

I want to tell everybody out there that they should be careful. My Husband is one of the ones that was hit by a car that nobody got a license plate for and got away. Whats more upsetting is the pleople who run the whole moonlight ramble didn't even have a clue the next day that anybody had been hit and 3 were hit even. I think they would want to follow up on this but no they went on VACATION> Be careful cars and bicycles don't mix
Moonlight Ramble Hit and Run
I'm so sorry to hear about your husband, I hope he is going to be alright. Everyone else knew about it, (apparently except Hostelling Int'l) because it was in Monday morning's Post - Dispatch....here's the link if anyone else would like to read about it:

It really makes me sick to think that someone would intentionally hit someone on a bike. I do hope they find the a------ who did this. We did not attend this year but, personally, I won't go on another Moonlight Ramble until HI rethinks the locale of the bike route. I know the city very well, and you are asking for trouble if send several thousand people into that area of the city on bikes.
