    Optional Pre-Ride:

    Meeting at 10:30AM and Place 1810 N. Hamlin Planning to depart on bicycles at 11:00AM to arrive at next stop by 12:00.


    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    First Official Stop: Fireside Restaurant & Lounge at 5739 N Ravenswood Ave

    Folks can wet their whistle or use the washroom in the Lounge but the real fun will be across the street. That's right, Rosehill Cemetary will be the playing field for a game of Sardines. We will all behave respectfully to the other folks using the space.

    We will plan leave all locations when it feels like the right time to do so and update this site accordingly. If you have questions that need answered in live time I prefer texts: 224-633-8242

    -> -> ->Does the idea of sitting in the cemetary while old and new friends seek to find you and hide with you, sound good?

    -> -> -> If so, I'm looking for a volunteer for this role as long as this message is visible. (I will provide a walkie talkie so we can communicate)

    Ride Proposal: Ravenswood South, Berwyn West,

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Second Stop: Winnemac Park at 5100 N Leavitt St

    The name of the game is Twister, but this is the DIY version and I've made some modifications to make it bigger and better.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Stop Three: Horner Park at 2741 W Montrose Ave

    The name of the game is Croquet. However the original version needed improved upon.

    The balls are different, the mallots are different, and now it's a 21-person game where "turns" don't exist, the scoring is modified, and it's a free for all to complete this course before your neighbor. There will be Mayhem.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    4: I'm looking at Brands Park Which I'm informed has actuall four square courts

    Bonus points: there is a nearby washroom/ water fill up spot

    The name of the game is Four Square. My youth recalls this game to be so epic it needed to be an Olympic sport.

    We have the balls you remember as a youth, there will be a bracket of a championship, several games going simutaneously. Everything else in the world dissapates into the background leaving just the ball, the court, and your journey for the gold medal.

    We have Chaulk to make our court and official regulation 4 Square balls.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Stop FIVE Palmer Square Park at 2200 N Kedzie Ave

    I am so excited about this! The rules will Not not be modified. This is the most perfect game that exists. Depending on group size depends on the level of Chaos. Make a note not to loose your voice before this.

    The name of the game is Throw Throw Burrito

    We have 3 copies of this game totaling to 6 Burritos flying through the air. Day of we'll discern if we can craft one giant game or 3 smaller, or tournament.

    The Celebration

    Imaginal Cell at 1400 N. Kildare

    Greetings chosen fam, There will be a cookout in the yard of Imaginal Cell. There are Hot-Dogs and Not-Dogs, buns and confiments and maybe you can bring a side to share?

    We'll be listening to THIS PLAYLIST which you are welcome to add songs to.

    I'm not sure if I will have time to finish the trophies for the award ceremony but that may happen.

    Materials have been acquired for plans for that should not be mentioned on the website. Ask in person for details.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~







    Greetings chosen fam,

    I am SO grateful for your contributing to this Mayhem me.

    This part of the evening will celebrate all that we have accomplished for the day. There will be a leaderboard We will connect together at different locations and play a group game together.

    The Soundtrack you'll be hearing? I need your help to compile it. Please contribute songs to This Playlist Which will be set to shuffle for the event.

    I'm hoping we can make a meal happen somewhat communally. I'll have a Grill set up and packs of Veg hot-dogs, buns, and ketchup. Everything else is a welcome contribution. We can start conversation during the ride what folks are after.

    Greetings friend,

    Thank you for making space in your schedule to join this adventure. Your attendance and enjoyment mean the world to me.

    What we have before us is an Adventure that will take place throughout the city of Chicago. We will connect together at different locations and play a group game together. There will be some form of Scoring for each game because someone's going to get bragging rights. If you're ever not interested in playing a group game, there will also be Side Quests available. More on that below. Following which we will mount our Bicycle or sustainably powered transit and ride in a critical mass to the next location where the event will continue.

    *I will update this page 'day of' to inform folks where the group is*

    The last stop will be at Imaginal Cell where we will Celebrate our victories and feast and be merry.

    I invited a lot of super rad folks to this. I'm going to ask if you are planning to attend to respond to me in our Personal Message and I will update this site per attendance at the bottom.


    Once again, Yay to everyone for agreeing to this, and I can't wait to see you!







    I know not everyone has social media and I wanted an easy way to communicate the things to all and this is what I came up with. :)
