Come be a part of A Bikeable Feast

So there's nothing like a little shameless self-promotion.... The events below are somewhat related to my work at Capitol Hill Bikes... inasmuch as they involve a bike.... sort of.

THURSDAY: 23 April
For the non-bikers in the group, you can still come be a part of the Bikeable Feast festivities. Come and bid farewell to Ollie and Ibti over a pint of good beer at one of our favorite neighborhood watering holes! Meet at the Wonderland Ballroom for happy hour on Thursday, April 23rd. (Right on the corner of 11th and Kenyon, just a few blocks from the Columbia Heights metro.)The happy hour special ($2 off all draft beer and a few other goodies, including $6 Delirium Tremens) runs from 5-8pm. I will likely be there well past 8pm, but the cheaper beer may not be. There's food, too, including some veggie options. More details are here.

SUNDAY: 26 April
For the bikers/picnickers in the group, come be a part of this semi-historic event at a legitimately historic place. We'll be setting off on the first few miles of A Bikeable Feast together, biking the first 15 miles along the historic C&O Canal before stopping at Great Falls for lunch.

Date: Sunday, April 26, 2009
Time: 9:00am - 2:00pm
Location: C&O Canal: Milemarker Zero (Georgetown)

Bring your own bikeable feast: a picnic, sunscreen, and lots of water. (I'd also throw in a few tire patches and a pump, just in case our luck rubs off on you.) I suspect the rest of the group will be heading back together after lunch as I continue toward Cumberland.... More details are here.

I'm sad to be leaving CHB, but you'll still hear from me from time to time via the blog. (And god help anyone who walks in without a helmet while I'm still here. You daredevils better stay away until at least Friday.)
