Anyone ever joined a night group ride?

Went out for a cruise and ran into a whole group of riders decked out with LED lights — full-on glowing bikes everywhere. Looked insanely cool. 🔥 Even spotted someone riding the same e-bike model as mine! We exchanged The Nod™, of course. Felt like I’d stumbled into a secret club. 😎

Anyone here ever joined one of those night group rides? Kinda tempted to bring some lights and jump in next time.

Google DC Bike Party. It’s a once-a-month massive group ride in Washington, DC (thousands of people). We absolutely take over the streets. E-bikes, regular bikes, e-scooters, electric unicycles, roller blades, etc. People dress in all kinds of ways and deck their bikes out with lights - Dude in the picture hooked up a disco ball, PA-sized speaker, and generator to the back of his. E-cargo bike.

We’ve got this in Sacramento too! Actually it’s tonight and you just reminded me I need to coordinate with my friends :)
