Penalty served (http://www.cosportbikeclub.org/forums/showthread.php?54492-2016-St-Patrick-s-Day-Parade-What-s-going-on&p=779037&viewfull=1#post779037) :oops:, now it's time to get back in the saddle again! The 2017 Denver St. Patrick's Day Parade takes place on Saturday, March 11th!

Once again, a huge THANK YOU to our long-standing, and returning sponsor, TFOG Whelsports (http://www.cosportbikeclub.org/forums/showthread.php?32167-***-CLUB-SPONSORS-***&p=458518#post458518), who has (once again), stepped up to sponsor our entry in the parade!
:applause:

If you've never ridden in the parade, this is definitely something you have to experience at least once (or so I've heard ;) )!


Fine-print stuff, but important, nonetheless:

There will not be a commemorative t-shirt this year, so there is no cost to participate (our entry has been paid by TFOG!). If you have a commemorative t-shirt from a previous parade, you are more than welcome to wear it!

We will have some water, and possibly some Gatorade (or similar), to help keep you hydrated before/during the parade, .

We will not be supplying any alcohol (that doesn't mean you can't bring your own, just please be responsible). The consumption of alcohol is not permitted anywhere along the parade route.

If you want to ride in the parade, you must be able to provide proof of insurance - parade marshals may be asking for it. If you can't provide it, you will not be allowed to participate in the parade.

Here is the official list of parade rules (http://www.denverstpatricksdayparade.com/parade-info/parade-day-rules).

Also, since we were banned from participating last year, because we did burnouts the year before:
****** No burnouts or stunting of any kind will be tolerated******



Now that that's out of the way...

We are limited to 10 vehicles (1 truck up front, with our banner + 9 bikes), so...
Sign-Up will be on a "first-come, first-served" basis (with a backup/reserve list, if necessary)

How to Sign-Up:





Reply to this thread & I will add your name to the Master List (below).
The back of the truck is reserved primarily for family members of participants (e.g. little kids), but space is limited - please specify how many spots you will need. If there is still room, we will consider letting other members participate in the parade by riding in the back of the truck.
Complete details will be distributed via PM to registered participants.
We usually meet for breakfast first, then ride to the pre-staging area together. Details will be sent via PM.

If I'm not out of state working I'll most likely make it. I'll check back as we near the date and see if there are any spots open. Be cool to attend this one final time. Thanks a ton again for stepping up TFOG!

JK, but would be nice if more people contributed to the site and posted so we could get it back to how it was years ago.....before places like Facebook had to take over forums....soon CSC will just be a Twitter feed :dunno:

I log in and check every now and then... but it's been so quiet I kinda gave up. :/
I was going to try to get the pickinick going last year but there just wasn't a lot of interest. It is sad, I miss the CSC of a handful of years ago.

I would post more, but with my upgrade in position at my work I am literally on the road all the damn time and just don't have time, i've driven to Laramie Wyoming, Grand Junction, Farmington New Mexico, Durango, Cortez, level, Co Springs, Greeley, Center Co, Monte Vista, and Alanosa, multiple times all in the last 3 weeks. I'm looking forward to being in the parade again!!!

I was just informed that one spot opened up, so if you're interested in riding, let me know ASAP!


I'm in for breakfast, too.
Breakfast will be at the usual Village Inn (on 48th, near I-25), around 8:15-8:30.
We'll be leaving for the staging area at 9:45.

I'm taking the Kawi track bike. Will that work since they are requiring proof of insurance?

You may have insurance on the track bike, so no big deal. Just saying since would suck to get there and be denied for that, so keep it in mind :)

Then I thought, COTA, the cancer institute, maybe Children's Organ Transplant Association? You people and your acronyms :lol:

Took me years to realize when my work talks about MD's it is not a medical doctor, but a medical director. For years I was amazed how many people were doctors that work with me :lol:

COTA = Circuit of the Americas

And do you realize this is a thread on the St Patrick Day parade...so I just figured you were talking about the bike you were riding in.

Do I ride?????......I ride the wife almost nightly :hump:

P.S. Do you even lift Gramps :D
Had to throw this in since it is a buff grandpa
