Tour de Fat - Chicago, July 16th!

Tour de Fat - Chicago, Illinois

 


Saturday July 16th

 

 

 

 

Yes folks, the Tour de Fat will once again be meandering and pandering through 13 U.S. cities spreading the good word about the positive societal offerings of the bicycle. Along with our exceptional ability to roust a city’s inner-cyclist, in 2011 we hope to drive our message even deeper by bringing you the biggest, most enjoyable traveling bike festival that we know of.

 

The Ride begins at 10 am at Palmer Square, but be there early to register.

Stay and enjoy the fun after the ride with music and theatrics by Squirm Burpee Circus, Dovekins, Daredevil Chicken Club, Mucca Pazza and Free Energy.

This ballyhoo of good times will be benefitting West Town Bikes.

Stay tuned to the TdF Facebook page for updates and further details.

 

 

 

 

VOLUNTEER, to make Tour de Fat a success for West Town Bikes!

 

 

That's right, WTB needs volunteers to make it all happen. Click Here to find out more!

I sent my volunteer email over a week ago haven't heard back. Is there a date for them to get back to everyone? Or is it my weak skills keeping me off the team?

Is 45 old enough?  Or did they raise the drinking age on me again?

I never been to the Chicago edition, but I just happened to be in Fort Collins for the one there last year. It was awesome! I'm looking forward to this!

Hey! I'm checking ages and ID's with the/of the Racketeers. (I must be the adult supervision portion of the team.)

Hey Alex, what time does the bike parade start? I remember from last year that even thought the fest started at 10, the parade took off at 9 or 9:30 and I don't want to miss it.

Hopefully Google+ will have some sort of group/activity function (integration with the google groups somehow?) so that people can cluster around an event like Tour de Fat on G+ without the requirement to become a FB member. 

 

Thanks for the info Bikefreek, I'll be there at 9AM bright and shiny to get all registered and legal-like.
