If you're looking for something different to do on your bike, come ride
with the Waukesha Hash House Harriers ("a drinking club with a running
problem"). Normally their get togethers are cross country runs, but
occasionally they do a "Bash" - a Biking Hash.

A little heads up about this Bash. The trail will be marked by any
combination of the following, flour, pieces of surveying tape, TP, and
possibly chalk. You will encounter different shaped marks that give you a
general idea of which way to go. These marks will be explained at the
"circle up" before the start of the ride.
The whole point of marks is it keeps the ride interesting, and doesn't let
the fast riders get ahead of the rest of the pack as they're generally are
the ones who find the false trails and then have to catch up with the rest
of the group who found the true trail. There will be lots of yelling
"on-on" and whistle blowing to let you know who is on trail. There will
also be one or more "rehydration stops" where you may rehydrate with your
favorite refreshment. And finally, at the end of the trail will be the
"on-in" which is where the party is. There you will be treated to numerous
drinking songs, stories of previous hash events, and information about the
next hash run.

Here's the details of the upcoming Bash. Hope to see you there.


On Sunday June 9th
Come join me on the first bash of 2002.

Start time: 3pm
Start Location: The northeast corner of the state fair grounds.
Thats by the intersection of 76th St. and I-94.
The park-n-ride parking lot.
Hare: Hand Solo

The trail will be combination of road and off-road. I recommend that only
mountain and hybrid bikes attempt it. Road bikes will probably have a hard
time of it!! I'm not sure how off-road this trail will actually be, but I
will try my hardest to find as much off road as i can.

As for weather: Only if it's rain hard, thunder storming, or snowing(it's
wisconsin you never know) will the bash be canceled. Also if it gets to
cold the bash will also be canceled. If it's only raining lightly the bash
will go on. If the bash is canceled and you still show up, those that show
up can always just go to a bar. The hare is obligated to show up to the
start and tell those that show up that the bash is canceled. If will take
some pretty bad weather to cancel a bash.

On-ON
