2008 St. Partick's Day Parade sign up

[Dizzy D]

The CSC is once again entered in this year's (Denver's 46th Annual) St. Patrick's Day Parade!

I'm very pleased to announce that the club's entry for this year's parade is being completely sponsored by:

Faster Motosports have stepped up and agreed to pay the entry fees for all participants (up to 30 bikes), as well as for commemorative t-shirts for each participant (to be worn during the parade, over gear, if so desired).
If you've never visited Fastser before, check them out - they: sponsor many MRA racers and are official CSC sponsors. They're located right off I-25 at 8th Ave. in Denver. Faster is at 999 Valejo St and can be reached at 303-825-0975 or 888-567-3278(FAST).

The parade takes place Saturday, March 15. Staging time will be to 10:00AM. The parade starts at 10AM. Staging info will be PM'd to participants the weekend before the parade.

Post-parade activities haven't been made yet, but in the past, we've usually ended up at Breckenridge Brewery, located along the parade route at 2220 Blake St.

Since we are limited to a maximum of 30 bikes, 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 (and braving cold temps in the morning). Don't forget to mention what size t-shirt you want, and if you will be bringing a passenger, what size t-shirt for them (and if you plan on wearing the t-shirt over your gear, please take that into consideration). In recent years, we have been able to get kids sizes for shirts. We will see what they have.

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.

I’m assuming that the no stunting policy will still be in effect.

Any other rules we should be aware of?

There are so many vehicles in the parade that aren't even street legal it's ridiculous. I wouldn't worry about the pipes. Before the parade folks decided stunting was teh debul, even the cops were cheering it on.

I’m assuming that the no stunting policy will still be in effect.

You will need to have a valid insurance card on you for the parade, marshals may check for it. Beyond that, just don't be a retard and plow into other bikes or the crowd. It's a lot of fun though!

We'll have some drinks and stuff in coolers in the truck, and we can fit a number of kids in the back if they want to come but don't want to ride on the bike.

If it's a ripping snowstorm I think they'll postpone it, otherwise we go! Usually it's warm and nice, but even if it's cold, the heat from all the bikes so close together will definitely keep you toasty warm. Worst case you can give your bike to someone who isn't a sissy and hop in the truck.

Hey All! YUP count this chicky in.... Tamara Shouse size M (my boys may come too so if there are an extra 2 x-small or small shirts?)
Also, Jim ( size L) is going to come with me so that's +2 for the bikes!

Where do we meet before the parade?

Where do we meet before the parade?

We will do breakfast somewhere beforehand (usually at the VI off Iowa/Colorado).

Parade route details and staging area/time will be sent via PM to people who are signed up as we get closer.

[MetaLord 9]

eh what the hell. As long as my pieces get here on time, I'm in.

Chris Haller - M

[suzinpink]

just an FYI you all... remember I am having the drunken stuper party the night before....

[MetaLord 9]

right, can I park my bike at the parade round-up point & just take a cab to it in the morning?

[rforsythe]

Nope, you gotta ride it in. Or find someone to trailer it for you.

Speaking of trailers I may have mine there, have not decided yet. Usually it's good for stashing gear and stuff in, since most people don't stay geared-up for a 10mph ride. (No, I'm not bringing your bike for you.)

Shit, I thought your shindig was Sat. night.
(Oh well, nothing cures a hangover better than burning clutch pads and high octane fumes.)

[Suki]

Hey ralph, I can't participate this year but would siate still beable to do it on his little dirtbike and I can ride in the back of the pickup (if you're doing that again)?

[rforsythe]

We'll have to check the rules Suki, not sure if there is an age limit on actually operating a vehicle. I'll get back to you.

[Suki]

okay thanks, just let me know when you find out. he had a blast last year and asked about doing it again this year.
