group ride THURSDAY NIGHT SOCIAL RIDE 10/29/26 - All-Hallows-Eve-Eve Ride - Spooks, Ghouls, and Goblins Edition!

#ThursdayNightSocialRide
#TNSR DETAILS
On All Hallows Eve-Eve-Eve, you are invited to take part in a most un-holy bike ritual, where phantasmal cyclists who’ve departed this realm will cover eleven spooky miles of this ruinous, accursed town alongside those of us still drawing breath, passing sites of massacres, near-massacres, haunted locales, scary hotels, and ancient graveyards where the dead get little rest!
The unquiet spirits of the night will seek brief repose among the creepy eaves of Eastwoods Park, before winding our way past the graves of our venerated forebearers and on to our FINAL DESTINATION: Pan-American park. Sure, it’s just a park, but knowing the bloody, sordid history of the American continents, my sense of anxiety-ridden dread is already rising like bile.
If you’re not yet cursed, YOU WILL BE!!!
The many horrific locales that await you:
Metz Park - Site of a recent hatchet attack
Moonshine Bar and Grill - Historic Waterloo Compound
Buffalo Billiards - even the venue is deceased!
Driskill Hotel
Stephen F Austin Hotel
Paramount Theater
