All Worst Day of the Ride 2014 Activities Now Suspended Until the Worst Day of 2015*

*Barring inclement weather in 2015.

Two days after canceling the Worst Day of the Year Ride's challenging ride through the west hills because of snow, organizers have also pulled the plug on the short urban ride and the after-ride party.

As recently as six hours ago, organizers expected that a small part of the ride would still go on. No longer.

Don't worry, riders, if you were registered for this year's race, "YOU ARE ALREADY REGISTERED FOR 2015, AND PAID IN FULL. This includes all merchandise and meal passes."

"Mother Nature wins this round," the e-mail said. "Tents can't be set, toilets can't be delivered, buses are being cancelled, roads are unsafe... BOOMING drums will start you off....NEXT YEAR... Delicious treats await you NEXT YEAR... Prizes awarded to the top 50 costumes NEXT YEAR."*

Instead, might we recommend some snow goats?
