Umm, no. This is not about hanging out at the local opium den with Osama.

I'm just looking for some of your experiences (if any) to these kinds of
rides...I'm looking to participate in a few here locally, and was wondering
how this type of organized rides work. Thanks.

I went on one a few years ago in atlanta, it was a blast. Ours
consisted of a rabbit (fast rider(s)) going out early and leaving marks
on the trail network with flour. Then the group leaves a little later
and tries to find the finish line. The rabbits would leave several
false leads so everyone worked together to get to the finish. Then we
all got drunk.

That's what I keep hearing. And amazingly enough I'm just south of ATL.


Then we all got drunk.


That's the part that caught my eye!

Thanks

I usually wouldn't even bother with any of your questions, but
you seem to be sincere and do want to share about biking.
I think you'll find some good info here although they do not
refer to them as hash rides.

Bashing is just Bike Hashing. Bashing hasn't been around as long as
Hashing, but the following is growing. Hashing was started by Albert
Stephen Ignatius Gispert, Second Lieutenant, 2nd Battalion, Argyll and
Sutherland Highlanders, known to hashers as "Gispert" or "G". Gispert
started H3 in Malaya in 1937. Now there are over 1,700 Hash Houses
world wide. If you are interested in the history see
http://www.sch3.net/hash_history.htm#top (my home hash).

Nothing about Hashing or Bashing should be construed to be organized.
Disorganization and misinformation are traditional (comes from the
military background). If you are interested in how it is supposed to
work check out
