5th Annual Birthday Bike Brigade Pub Pedal!

Another year, another AMAZING bike brigade! Happy Birthday to Nelia, Jay, Nate, Joanna (and Neil too)! This year's ride didn't disappoint. We started at Jay and Maegen's place for some delicious apps and drinks. We hopped on our bikes at around 8pm and headed towards the bike path just in time to see the sunset. Destination: The Old Northender. While we were there, we spent some quality time drinking pitchers of Budweiser and catching up with each other. Then we packed up, realized the single roller blader in the bunch had no skates (stolen while we were inside-lame) and continued on to T. Ruggs. I bought Nelia and Laurel a shot. It was supposed to be Nelia's choice. She reluctantly said, "Is whiskey okay?" Laurel and I said, "Sure...but, how about a Kamikaze instead?" Bullet dodged. Finally, we were packed up and read to head to our 3rd and final location. JP's. For the last few years we've traveled to JP's via Church Street, even though cyclists aren't allowed to ride their bikes there. People weren't as welcoming this year as they have been in previous years but, it was still pretty epic. We parked our bikes on Main St. and headed inside. It was a good crew. We enjoyed lots of laughs before the group decided to head to Juniors for late night pizza. It was a great night for a ride! Thank goodness, since it only happens once a year for me.
