CIRCUSES

What do we mean by “circuses”? From Webster’s, a selective definition…

: a public spectacle

: an arena often covered by a tent and used for variety shows usually including feats of physical skill, wild animal acts, and performances by clowns

: something suggestive of a circus (as in frenzied activity, sensationalism, theatricality, or razzle-dazzle)

In addition to the run-of-the-mill, expectant activities a mountain bike campout might suggest, we’re planning some “razzle dazzle” to go along with it. Here is a preliminary list as well as the aforementioned open invitation for your additions…

DIY MERCH

We’ll be bringing some decals, iron-ons, and fabric paints and dyes for you to create expressions of the Excitebike experience. T-shirts, hats, mugs, totes…that kind of thing. The art supplies are free and the blanks are available for purchase at whatever they cost us….or you can bring your own blanks to customize. Time to get crafty.

THE HUFFY TOSS

In all its gladiatorial splendor we present the Huffy Toss, a competition wherein one flings an expired mass-market bicycle shotput-style to see who can send it the farthest.

DAD JOKES AND GHOST STORIES

An around-the-fire gabfest of cheesy jokes and silly stories with prizes for the most yuck-worthy and spine-tingling attempts. Extra credit if you can combine the two!

MUSIC AND DANCING

I believe it was Socrates who said: “The ungroovy life is not worth living.” To wit we will have no shortage of beats and bops. If we’re lucky, we may be able to convince Headspin Chris to bust out some of his B-Boy break dance moves.

ROLL YOUR OWN

Again, we’re gonna encourage you to bring your talents/wares/ideas to the party. Please shoot us a note with your proposal!
