I would hope so since it is being put on by a buncha bikers...LOL
alas, if I weren't going to be riding around Barber, I'd be there for this in a heartbeat...maybe next time!
parking will be in a fenced area for bikes only and guarded!
The members of the Swarm will be on a rotating schedule to maintain certain areas and facilitate the event. The Ottobar has hired a security guard for the area, but we will still have riders circulating the area regularly.

Just grabbed a flyer from Speed's while there were putting on my 14t sprocket. Hopefully I can attend.
I'll be out of town. damn. looks like agreat time.
Both of us are going to be out of town in different places. Stillie will be at the CCS races that weekend and I will be at Girls Week 2008 (family tradition with the three ladies getting together at my sister's place in Austin).
that just means more beer for me!
Dammit. Rodney was telling me about this a few weeks ago and considering The Popes and Iron Boss are two of my favorite bands in the area I was all over it. Now, I realize it's on a Saturday and not Sunday I can't get off work. How about changing it to a Monday :)?
sure LG, we can change it for you!
Consider it done, most folks would rather go out on a Monday anyhow.
Be there at 12 sharp!
Seriouly, why would anyone work on saturdays(days) anyhow, every knows that is the official day for hell-raising-on-two-wheels.....Sunday is just guilt by association.

Ah, that's the killer about being in the restaurant business. Saturdays are kind of busy and we need all the help we can get to give our guests the wonderful experience they deserve :-X
LG- So what restuarant do you work at? Are you in the Balt. area of CAM or the DC area?

Dude, it's over two weeks away! You should find someone to switch shifts with by then if they are two of your
favorite bands. You don't have to show up @ twelve ifyou cant make it that early. Shit will be going on all day and it should be lots of good fun and debauchery!
As for the rest of you, come on out and have some fun! All are welcome!!!
Good point Rich!
I might want to clarify that this is an allday event....if you would like to join us for a leisurly ride from 12-3 great (last year we had 24 bikes)
from 3-5 hanging in the parking lot ...food and beers
5-close...music inside the Ottobar....
show up anytime you like.

No one to switch with. Since I'm the one running the place, so to speak, I have to pick and choose what few Saturdays I can get off wisely. Family obligations are a b!tch.
I really want to go to this! I have a sprint tri in the a.m. out on the shore. If I am not too beat I might drive down for the evening events. I luv the Otto Bar.
SoWeBo Festival was this weekend, and so was Brew in The Zoo....i passed out a ton of flyers.
98Rock also announced Thee Summer Swarm last week.

Any DC-area folks heading up to this?
Just wanted to follow up. It was a good ride. Had about 32 bikes total. We all got soaked, but it was still fun.
Are there any photos?
