<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.
- HOBOCON_1[THE_ORIGIN_RIDE // ARCHIVED]KANSAS CITY ↔ ST. LOUIS · DEC 27–28 2025
Where it started. One train, one wild idea, and proof that a conference doesn’t need a ballroom. The original invite, preserved word for word.
> VISIT_THE_ARCHIVE → - HOBOCON_2[SOLD_OUT // ARCHIVED]KANSAS CITY ↔ CHICAGO · JUL 17–18 2026
Full talk track, lightning talks in the observation car, and a hotel night in Chicago. Sold out — and the site that sold it out, preserved as-was.
