Anyone else planning on "auditing" the L.A.T.E. Ride?

Are the Marauders and other like minded cyclists meeting up before the Mcdonalds Midnight L.A.T.E Ride somewhere? Anyone planning on crashing the ride in large numbers?

I don't see anyone discussing this happening online or in person. And for some reason I ain't on the MM list serve, I should probably get on that.

Two years ago the L.A.T.E Ride audit was super bad ass fun. It was certainly one of the more memorable midnight rides in recent memory.

If you're joining us, please, RSVP and invite your friends on Facebook [ https://www.facebook.com/events/411389172247347 ] or the Chainlink [ http://www.thechainlink.org/events/mcdonalds-l-a-t-e-ride-audit ]!

Yeah Martin wants me to call him. I assume someone would'a told me about that on Monday. Hope I didn't step on his toes! : |

Non-riding volunteers are free at least they are giving some people a break by not charging them a fee for allowing them to donate their free time and labor.

Is it ok if I ride the audit based on pure spite? I wasn't planning on going seeing as I've got work early Sunday morning, but now it almost feels like I'm being inspired by a certain troll.

I kind of tried in a rather weak, lame way.

For late arrivers, such as me, who wants to give up their digits and field location texts?

Peer pressure?

I'm curious to know what motivates people to volunteer for this event, fee or no fee.

Some people have the inescapable need to feel special and to cultivate the praise and accolades of their peer group. Without it they wilt and are unable to support their own sense of self-worth. It's a hive-mind thing.

in years past, did volunteers at least get free mcmuffins at the end?

So, if you're out there helping with the flow of the ride, or do first aid, you have to pay $10 for the privilege. Awesome!

Course marshal volunteers and on-bike medic volunteers pay only $10

A $10 off coupon for angioplasty at a local heart clinic.
