2005 St. Patrick's Day Parade - Pics on page 6!

[Spiderman]

Denver's 43rd Annual St. Patrick's Day Parade takes place on Saturday March 12th
and the CSC is regsitered! :D I don't have our staging time yet, but I imagine it will be the same as last year (8:30 AM). The parade starts around 10AM.

Like last year, there will be a small fee to participate, and each participant will once again receive a commemorative t-shirt (to be worn during the parade). The theme for this year's parade is "Red, White & Blue and Irish, Too". In order to fit in with this theme, we've decided to go with 4 different colors of t-shirts, with red t-shirts grouped in front, followed by white, blue, then green.

If anybody is interested in getting a commemorative t-shirt (without participating in the parade), let me know - cost will probably be $10. These shirts will be available in the parade colors (red, white, blue & green), as well as black. If you want one, you must order it before Noon on Monday February 28th. They will not be for sale at the event, only available for pick-up by the people who ordered them.

We have sponsorship again from Breckenridge Brewery (http://www.breckbrew.com/food/pubdenver.html), TK Motorsports (http://www.tk-motorsports.com/) & TFOG Wheelsports (http://tfogracing.com/), and although this helps defray some of the costs, like I said, there will be a small fee to participate. Depending on the total number of participants & t-shirts ordered, I expect the amount to be somewhere between $5 - $8 per person.

If you can't participate in the parade with us, make sure to join us for post-parade festivities at Breckenridge Brewery (http://www.breckbrew.com/food/pubdenver.html), located along the parade route at 2220 Blake St. (Northeast corner from Coor's Field - click for map (http://www.mapquest.com/maps/map.adp?country=US&address=2220+Blake+st&city=Denver&state=co&zipcode=&homesubmit.x=0&homesubmit.y=0)).

The entry fee is non-refundable, even if the weather is horrible - most of that money is going towards the t-shirts, which you will receive regardless if you actually ride in the parade or not.

Because the parade is just over 2 weeks away and t-shirts have to be ordered, all entries must be received by Noon on Monday February 28th.

Important: Participants must carry proof of insurance - parade marshals may be asking for it. If you can't provide it, you won't be allowed to participate in the parade.

Complete details will be distributed by email to registered participants.

If you trailer your bike to the parade, there will be parking near the staging area for your truck and/or trailer.

We are limited to a maximum of 30 vehicles. Since Ralph will be driving the truck up front with the banners, that leaves room for 29 bikes. Hoopty will once again be our official "showman" for the crowd, performing stunts between 2 rows of bikes. Counting 1 spot for him, 1 for me and 1 for Paul (co-founder of the CSC), this means that there are only 26 open spots available. More importantly, there are only 7 spots available per color (5 in red, since both Paul & I will be in that color group), so this will be done on a sign-up basis. To sign up, please reply to this thread, but please only do so if you are serious about participating. Don't forget to mention what color group you want to be in, and what size t-shirt you want, and if you will be bringing a passenger, what size t-shirt for them (color will be the same as yours).

Here is the official list:
Red:
1. Spiderman - XL
2. Paul - XL
3. mikesf4i - 2XL + passenger -M
4. Jason (Airreed) - XL
5. Mike (Banzi) - L

You can copy the above list into your post and add your name where you want it, or simply reply & I'll update the master list periodically. In the case of multiple people vying for the last spot in a color group, the person who posted first gets it. In the event that somebody has to cancel at the last minute, I will be starting a "Standby" list once the above list fills up. Unfortunately, people on the standby list will most likely not have a choice as to which color goup they end up in.

"all details will be emailed to registered participants"... ;)

[Rhino]

I need to add a medium blue for a passenger.

[Mel]

Does anyone else on the south west end of town want to meet up with me to ride to the staging area that morning? And will there be any kind of parking or anything near where we stage for mny husband to come along?

[Hoopty]

:siesta: I don't know that I want to meet up and ride with you to the staging area, but I will be heading down there from the SW side. :P

;) We could meet up at Aspen Grove or something. :idea:

";p="180650]Does anyone else on the south west end of town want to meet up with me to ride to the staging area that morning? And will there be any kind of parking or anything near where we stage for mny husband to come along?

Yes there is parking in the staging area (most of the parade participants don't "show what they drove" so to speak, a lot of it is trailered in).

[Canuck]

FYI Bob, I'm out. Found out today that I am going too be On-Call that week :|

[Mel]

I don't know that I want to ride with you either Hoop....but maybe if Ahsli is going, I could tolerate you for a bit :lol:

And cool on parking, I will have my husband and kiddo follow me up there then.

";p="180650]And will there be any kind of parking or anything near where we stage for mny husband to come along?

If you trailer your bike to the parade, there will be parking near the staging area for your truck and/or trailer. Even if you don't trailer your bike to the parapde, the parking will still be there. ;)



OH YEA AND HOW MUCH ARE WE PAYN HERE

Depending on the total number of participants & t-shirts ordered, I expect the amount to be somewhere between $5 - $8 per person. :roll:

Sorry to hear that. Thanks for the heads up.

I don't think I'm gonna be entering the parade for this year but thought I would give the newbies a few pointers.

1. your bike's gonna run HOT
2. I wouldn't be worried about wearing out a clutch unless you burn out like a dummy.
3. Be prepared for next to dead or dead battery at the end of the parade, gonna be doing ALOT of idle type speeds.
4. If the weather is gonna be as nice as last year, you're gonna get HOT too during the parade.
5. BE CAREFUL! Last year there were no barriers between us and the crowd, never know what might happen.

Other than that, you're gonna make alot of lil kids smile :D

[BenDover]

Hoopty, we need to have that wheelie school before the parade. I need to learn how to wheelie before the parade. :lol:


2. I wouldn't be worried about wearing out a clutch unless you burn out like a dummy.

Figure around Noon - 1PM.

If the weather's nice (fingers crossed), I'm sure there will be people wanting to go for a ride. I think there was one last year, but I think it was more of an "after-lunch" ride, than an "after-party" ride (if you're going to consume alcohol, I wouldn't encourage canyon riding afterwards :no: - and I'd even be concerned for your ride home considing that plain street riding can be dangerous enough, even when sober).

*COUGH*Butters.*COUGH*

Now who was it that tried to do a burn out but should have had more smoke from their clutch (if it was a vented dry clutch) than their rear tire????

Man, I REALLY wanna go but we're having a base wide evaluation going on from march 1-22...... Never know when I might be called back into work for the stupid thing.... Plus I get this weird feeling not to push my luck during the parade... I really don't want to risk launching the Honduchi into the crowd and hurting a lil kid or big kid or old fart..... Figure avoid it and don't have to worry about it..... Last year was a BLAST though, and I got a few sloooooooow speed tricks up my sleeve I done did got down good.....

Now, since Hanna was burdened with The Banner Contraption (http://www.cosportbikeclub.org/ClubPics/page40-parade2003/IMG_1410.jpg) 2 years ago, I think she deserves to participate in the parade unhindered by such devices, :D so she'll be the 8th person on the green squad. 8)

[firefghtr]

it looks like it, whats up w/ dat yo

[Geology Rocks]

Sorry, but I am Italian.....100%. I would die on the spot if I wore that shirt...:D

[firefghtr]

i wonder how many people have join just cause the parade exposure

[MiniNC35Grl]

i cant do the parade but imma plan on makin it afterward for lunch/ridin. i might need to exchane phone numbers w/ someone that could gimmie the lowdown on that day about when ur about done so i can head over to teh brewery.

Same goes for me...I'll be present and accounted for at Breck's....about noonish, correct?

[Brizz]

Sorry, but I am Italian.....100%. I would die on the spot if I wore that shirt...:D

Im italian and im wearing it. I think your an imposter!

[~Barn~]

The after party is actually more fun than the parade. :lol:

Have fun everybody. They are definitely a blast to participate in, so if this is your first time riding, enjoy it, and look at the faces on the crowd. It's seriously intoxicating to see how amped they are to see ya'll!

[rforsythe]

i wonder how many people have join just cause the parade exposure

Well that, and it's just fun. I'm not Irish or Catholic, I just do it cause it's a blast!

BTW, Breck's is a great place to watch the parade from - if you don't get a window seat, you can watch from the balcony, just get there early (parade starts at 10). ;)

[AshliRider44]

I hope its a blast... I quit my job so that I could go :) LOL

[Mista Black]

:? you seriously quit your job to go on a bike ride?? are you serious?? do you wanna get married?? :lol:

[Hoopty]

Yes, she is dead serious. :lol: That's muh gurl!!! :D

[Mista Black]

she rocks!! how the hell did you get her?? :lol:

[~Barn~]

I remember somebody quiting a job because she didn't like it. I do believe she had a divorce given to her, shortly there after. :lol:

[AshliRider44]

LOL Hey... gotta do whatcha gotta do... cant miss my man the entertainer... :)

[~Barn~]

I would quit a job, to avoid him, so I see where you're coming from.

[firefghtr]

hey ralph i meant joined after the parade cause they saw us there and or our bikes and banners. not what you were thinkin

[Spiderman]

I remember a few years ago, when I used to process membership emails manually (before the forum was the main thing), I really noticed a jump in apps right after the parade.

:idea: Maybe we should start a poll on Saturday, asking newbies if they joined because they found out about us in the parade.

[Mista Black]

nice idea. i'm betting a lot of people join up after. even though there's gonna be a beemer in there :D... especially cause there's gonna be a beemer in there :lol:

[Spiderman]

I dunno, they'll see your bike & be like "Wow, they even let ugly bikes in there!" :shock:


:P

[Mista Black]

yep then the japanese bike guys wont be scared to join :lol:

[Brizz]

yep then the japanese bike guys wont be scared to join :lol:
I think they will be scared to join after they see that they cant get a word in edgewise. With our resident post whore an all. :P

Make sure you post to this too. :idea:

[Spiderman]

Jeff, I didn't want to touch this, but are you referring to the owners of Japanese bikes, or Japanese owners of bikes? :dunno:

[Mista Black]

japanese bikes of course... i was born in japan too :D

[Speedfix]

Damm, once again I'm late. Well I'll ask anyway. Could my son and I ride our pocket bikes at the parade with the club? PLEASE...If not is there any room left for my old ZX9R? Sorry for the last minute hassle. The son is turning into quite the rider. He was draggin his knee on the third day. Then mellowed after the fifth ride when he high sided. He didn't get hurt and was in full gear. Please send me a PM or post here when you get this. Talk at you later...Floyd

[rforsythe]

Hey Floyd!

Sorry, no pocketbikes. First off they'd need to be insured. Second, they'd run out of gas pretty quick, and would just be in the back of the truck anyway. Bob will have to let you know about riding your ZX...

[AshliRider44]

I would quit a job, to avoid him, so I see where you're coming from.

Jealousy... its a sad sad thing... :roll:
Barn do you even have a job???? :oops:

[~Barn~]

Barn do you even have a job???? :oops:

Negative, but I just got paid. :P

[Hoopty]

Typical democrat. :lol:

[~Barn~]

Hey man... Like Nelly said.. "F*&k the game, before the game f*&ks you"

;)

I kinda wish that she would actually send the resume out that we worked so much on!

[Rhino]

And to try to bring this topic back on track...weather.com has saturday listed as a high of 65. 8)

[Hoopty]

Rhino, are you a Democrat too? :lol:

Hell yeah, I hope it stays that way!!! :twisted:

Someone asked me some key questions once and told me I was a republican. I still think of myself as a eutopian anarchist.

[Mel]

You work for Medicaid huh.....does that mean you might be able to actually process the claims I send to you instead of everyone giving me the run around and excuses? I have spent hours on the phone trying to get shit handled...stupid office crap.

[Spiderman]

I just emailed the details to the participants. The email was sent to the address in your profile (so if it's not current, you won't get it)

If you are on the list, but you don't receive the email by tomorrow (Tuesday), let me know.

[Suki]

Is there a map of the parade route? I've never been to the st pattys parade and want to take my minni me there.

Someone said Brecks is a good spot for watching it, does it go right infront of brecks? Anyone going to brecks to watch or wanna meet up to watch it?

[Spiderman]

It does pass right in front of Brecks. Great place to watch it from, IMHO. 8) Expect tons of people on the balcony.

For a map & more info: http://www.denverstpatricksdayparade.com/

[Suki]

Cool thanks!!

[Brizz]

So can i throw candy at the kids? I have a really cool fanny pack that im dying to test out...

[Spiderman]

No. We are not allowed to throw anything to the crowd.

[Suki]

It's because you aren't a fat jolly man, or the mayor! :lol:


So who is not in the parade that is going to the parade????

Ya I work for them, unfortunately I can't process the claims. I work on the Servers and computers. But I do make up great excuses as to why you don't get your claims processed. :lol:

[Hey y'all, watch this!]

Is anyone riding down from FTC or the northern hemisphere?

[AshliRider44]

I'll probably be down there with my boy.

[Ripper]

Well it looks like my spot just opened up, due to :guns: "Murphy's Law"

Next please!

I'll try and catch up with Y'all later. 8)

[Hoopty]

I know someone that will take Ripper's spot if you don't have anyone on a waiting list...

[Spiderman]

iam4u2nv is on the standby list. I've sent him a PM, but on the off chance he can't make it, will a large shirt work for your friend?

[Hoopty]

Yeah probably, but a M would work better I'm sure. :)

[AshliRider44]

Hey BTW.... is everyone wearing their gear for this... or just their lids and the T shirts???????? :oops:

[Hoopty]

Most people don't even wear lids, it's a snails pace for the most part...

[AshliRider44]

Thanks babe ;)

[Spiderman]

Hoopty,

Sorry, it's too late to change the size of the t-shirt now, but your friend is in. 8) Can you forward them the details?

[Brizz]

Im wearing a green thong and a firemans helmet. Oh dont wanna for get the flip flops. And a pair of snow boarding goggles. Ill have my red lens flashlight areound if some one needs it.

[Hey y'all, watch this!]

Anyone else wearing a kilt?

[AshliRider44]

Anyone else wearing a kilt?

:shock: :o :o :shock:

[Kitty Kat]

On the off chance anyone can't participate in the parade - Scott and I would be interested in taking their places - if there is a "line" waiting - just add us to it.

Thanks :)

[Hoopty]

My friend bailed, so I guess we still have one opening. :|

[Spiderman]

NP - the open spot has been sold... to Kitty Kat! :yay:

[Mista Black]

so that means she's in and Scott's not in yet?? i'll give up my spot so he can go too if need be. i dont have anything going on and will still be up there for it but i'm willing to move out so he can ride too. happy b-day bro!! :happybday:

[Spiderman]

Correct. Thanks for the offer. :up: I've let her know about it. Hopefully we'll get an answer soon. 8)

[rforsythe]

Ok, I was reading the parade rules last night. They *really* want us there on time. Not early, and not late. So if you're not meeting us for breakfast first, but will be in the parade, please be at staging promptly at 9AM! Remember our block number (Bob emailed it to participants), parade marshals will direct you once you get to the entrance.

Also guys, please leave a bit of room for the truck in front of the bikes if you beat Bob there.

[Dr. Joe Siphek]

But don't be early........or late! :lol:

[Kitty Kat]

so that means she's in and Scott's not in yet?? i'll give up my spot so he can go too if need be. i dont have anything going on and will still be up there for it but i'm willing to move out so he can ride too. happy b-day bro!! :happybday:

YOU are soooooo sweet - but it isn't necessary. Scott is fine not being in the parade - but he will be there - taking pics! and drinking a beer :)

Thanks for the offer - I look forward to seeing everyone!!

[Spiderman]

I just sent an email to all the participants, but in case you see this first, be sure to bring some water to drink during the parade. Camelbacks are ideal, but a bottle of water will work too. I'll be bringing water to stay hydrated while we wait in the staging area.

[mikesf4i]

Just wanted to say thanks to everyone who helped organize this and whoever brought the water and muffins. We had a good time and it was nice putting more faces with names. The only problem is, now my kids want to be just like Hoopty when they grow up. :roll:

[firefghtr]

yea it was a great time guys ...post those pics

[Spiderman]

Just wanted to say thanks to everyone who helped organize this and whoever brought the water and muffins. You're welcome! 8)

[Mista Black]

I have it on tape, but no longer have means to xfer it to computer. I'm going to create a new post to see if anyone out there does/can. 8)

Hoopty,

I wanted to thank you for not listening to that marshal when he told you to stop the first time. The footage of us begins with him telling you to quit it! The announcers were waiting for something, and when you started right after he left, they were all like 'There it is! That's what we were talking about!' :lol: :up: 8)

[Brizz]

I have it on my PVR and i may be able to transfer it to my comp. Ive never done this before so it may take awhile. If some one has it before my lazy ass gets to it, POST IT UP!.

[Mista Black]

Anyone have a link to the news coverage? Obviously, I wasn't at home watching it. :lol:

well if you'da stopped stuntin when that nice man asked maybe you coulda watched it!!

[Hoopty]

Cool. :lol: Right after the guy was telling me that, I saw the cameras and was thinking, oh, looks like this is where I need to do something for the camera! :D I was just a bit nervous, I didn't want to get you (or me :D ) in trouble. After he told me the second time, I made sure I couldn't see him anymore before I starting messing around again. It's hard to turn cute kids down telling you to wheelie... :oops:

[Spiderman]

I'm going to have a talk with the parade comittee, and once we get the footage online, I'm going to point out where the guy comes up to you & tells you to stop, right when the coverage starts.

[Hoopty]

Did they say anything to you about it? :?

[Spiderman]

Nope - nothing... yet. :?
