Hey guys- Are of any of you planniing Christmas rides? I'm trying to organize one at our park and am trying to figure out how to make it worth their while for folks to come out in the cold Atlanta night and cycle in Christmas colors, etc. Any ideas on how to make it fun?

They should be required to dress as elves, santa, reindeer etc. There are also Christmas lights that some put on their bikes. Everybody should be required to bring cookies for the finish. You can provide the hot chocolate.

Our bike club has done bike themed caroling in the past - they re-worked carols (e.g. "Oh Cannondale") and we biked from bike lover's house to bike lover's house. I thought it was fun - DH didn't agree

Hey Denny, what park in Atlanta? I'm in Atlanta too, and once you organize it, let me know. I'll post it on the Sorella Cycling site.
I'll be riding alot those days, and especially that weekend. My training plans call for two 6-hour rides. Ouch!For 3 days, I get to part of a thousand other journeys.

We do a Wednesday night Women's ride out at Stone Mountain - lights and helmets required. We always end with a trip down Snowflake Lane -- it's a little side street with lights hanging, covering the lane. So pretty.
Right now, we split into two groups based on speed. You both should join us! We meet at the walk-up parking lot at 6:30, ready to ride.
SBL is having a Christmas Lights ride too -- starting in Decatur this Thursday. SHould be fun!For 3 days, I get to part of a thousand other journeys.
