Bringing people together for Bike Fun

Bikey Fun, July 2010
RSS
Sunday Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday Friday Saturday
Mankind has invested more than four million years of evolution in the attempt to avoid physical exertion. Now a group of backward-thinking atavists mounted on foot-powered pairs of Hula-Hoops would have us pumping our legs, gritting our teeth, and searing our lungs as though we were being chased across the Pleistocene savanna by saber-toothed tigers. Think of the hopes, the dreams, the effort, the brilliance, the pure force of will that, over the eons, has gone into the creation of the Cadillac Coupe de Ville. Bicycle riders would have us throw all this on the ash heap of history.

ERINNE'S AFTER-WORK BIKE MOVE Link
4912 N Montana Ave Take Trimet
5:30pm
Because of the two upcoming busy bikey weekends, my move is after work Thurs, July 1. Meet at 5:30pm at my current residence: 4912 N Montana (at N Alberta) for noshing & trailer packing. After the move, we can hang at my new place with beer and vegan dinner.

This move will be perfect for 1st timers! The route to my new place (NE 24th and Killingsworth) is only a little over 2 miles and completely flat.

No trailer? Come with your rack & panniers for small boxes. I think I have a lot of stuff, though only a few pieces of furniture-dresser, coffee table, small tables, desk, etc.

Thanks!

The PPP returns for its SIXTH season!  A casual bicycle ride traversing approx. 3-5 miles (5-8km) with a different route each time. The end destination is a mystery park.  The term "park" will be used liberally here, so expect the unexpected!   At the endpoint we'll enjoy a picnic dinner. Eating will be potluck style, so please bring food and drink to share (preferably vegetarian/vegan). Bring lights! Please bring your own silverware, plate, and cup. If it looks like it'll rain we'll end up at a COVERED destination.
