<RIDES_PAST>

Every Hobocon gets archived, warts and all. The old sites live on exactly as they were — talks, chaos, and questionable ASCII art included.

KANSAS CITY ↔ CHICAGO · JUL 17–18 2026
Full talk track, lightning talks in the observation car, and a hotel night in Chicago. The site, preserved as-was.
