Santa Rampage

Join The Massive Mob of Santas on Bikes

December 13, 2014 By Dayton Most Metro

Tradition! Without it, our lives would be as shaky as a Santa on a roof. But it’s 2014, and we gotta start gettin’ on with the times Daytonites, and time is calling for a new tradition in the Gem City.

Through these many years, Dayton has undergone many technical innovations. First it was the radio, then black-and-white TV, Technicolor, standard-def, UHF, VHF, VCR, DVD, LOL, WTF, OMG, BBQ, you name it, we had it. But now, we finally have our very own DSR, Dayton Santa Rampage.

Dayton? Santa? Rampage? What is this strange combination of words you speak of?

It’s pretty simple actually and can be boiled down to an easy-to-follow three-step process.

Step 1: Put on your Santa suit/gear/hat/union suits/accouterments.

Step 2: Get on your bike.

Step 3: Ride down to Warped Wing at 3:30 PM on Saturday December 13th.

From there around 4 PM, after enjoying a fine brew or two, we will take our Christmas cheer and good tidings to the streets of Dayton and ride around town for a few miles, making our way to Fifth Street Brewpub for a final pit stop before heading down to the Santa Pub Crawl in the Oregon District. We will end the ride at the Dublin Pub.

Though this is not officially affiliated with the Santa Pub Crawl, we highly encourage that you join in the festivities post-ride. After all it is for a great cause. Details on the Pub Crawl can be found here:https://www.facebook.com/events/1506195059624714/

So why should you attend the Santa Rampage?

You see, eventually the Santa Rampage will help put an end to war and poverty. It will align the planets and bring them into universal harmony, allowing meaningful contact with all forms of life, from extra terrestrials to common household pets. And, it’s excellent for dancing. And a massive mob of Santas on bikes is strangely erotic. Enough said.

A few logistical thingys/da tails

1.) Like other informal group rides, this is ride at your own risk.

2.) Please follow all rules of the road, including no riding on sidewalks, ride with lights (other than Christmas ones), ride no more than two Santas abreast, and please wear proper headgear.

3.) If you don’t have a bike and/or lights, contact Andy and he can help set you up.

Ride Right and Rampage On!
