Will Cruise for Others (11/17)

There's lots to give thanks for this year: friends, family, bikes, good food and drink, warm autumn weather, bikes...you get the idea. Let's cruise this month for all that we give thanks. Remember, though, there are some that don't have much this time of year, so bring a canned good or two to donate to a local soup kitchen to help those with little to, at least, have a nice Thanksgiving.

Meet Tuesday the 17th at 8:30pm at Mt. Pleasant Plaza.

BIKEtoberfest (10/20)

Meine Damen und Herren,

As you know, October is a time for celebrating and appreciating the beer. What better way to show our appreciation for this delectable, yeasty beverage than to have a cruise in its honor? Meet at 1615 Irving St. NW in Mt. Pleasant for social at 7:30 for pre-cruise brats. Cruise by 8:45. We'll make our way to the Raven for post-cruise brews.

Car-Free Cruise (9/21)

Let's cruise car-free style this month.

Tuesday, the 22nd of September is the official "Car-Free Day" in DC (http://www.carfreemetrodc.com/) and we thought it would be a good idea to help get the word out the night before by reminding people to avoid their cars on Tuesday!!

So come one and come all with your banners, your signs, your anti-car slogans, and your chants and help get people out of their cars and onto their bikes!! We'll meet to ride at 8:30 on Monday, September 21 at the Mt. Pleasant Square between Lamont and Mt. Pleasant Streets. We'll ride until we can ride no longer and then we'll head to the Raven. Don't forget to bring your friends!
