Description

After 16 years of pedaling from gallery to gallery, it seems fitting our gypsy Bike Winter Art Show would land at a bike shop. Of course, we wouldn't pick just any ordinary bike shop, and our hosts at Ancien Cycles are destined to become a social hub for the many thousands that bike along our beloved Hipster Highway every day.

For opening night Fri Feb 21, we will focus on the bike art and provide snacks and drinks for a couple hundred cyclists looking for a chance to get un-layered and hang out.

On Fri Feb 28, we will amp things up for a night of bike fashion, music, and dancing - stay tuned for details.

Join us for our closing party featuring a night of bike fashion and music. Ancien will be unveiling their line of bikes available this Spring and give us a quick primer on the Randonneur experience (Google it.) We also have a few wildcards from the diverse local bike scene(s) starting with the wee bike tots of Kidical Mass, then on to the likes of Chicago Bike Polo and Spoken Art (custom decals to pimp your ride.) For the sake of the children's bedtimes, we are starting the fashion show at 8:30pm, so don't be late.

Wondering what the bike music is?
We are ecstatic to announce the debut of local hip hop artists SunSurfers, and we are blown away that they have a song cycle of hip hop bike tracks. Srsly, this is gonna be way more dope than Lance could ever hope to swallow.

The Racketeers are loosely scheduled to crash the party at some point to make some bike righteous noise.

Doors open at 7pm, you do not want to miss this one.
