8am meetup, rolling by 8:30am
Ride is a loop
Come one! Come all! Come bikes big and small! Just got a basket? Or maybe nothing at all? Thats ok, friend- don't worry one bit Look see, it’s carrying YOU ain't it?!? Cargopalooza returns for its 3rd year, and this time we're on a mission... Our first 'palooz will take us to the one and only ~*Goodwill bins*~ where one can only hope that large objects will be carried away by bicycle. Feeling helpful? Want to use that old Burley trailer but don't really need to buy anything? Need to buy something big but don't have a cargo bike? I smell a cargo friendship beginning to bloom :') Come carry some stuff or just geek out on some cool cargo bikes! Meet outside Splendid Cycles at 8am, wheels rolling by 8:30 to arrive at “the bins” around 9. We'll hang, discuss front loaders vs long tails, take turns going in for a rummage while others can stay outside watch the bikes. Awards will be given (read: made up on the spot) for biggest / weirdest / most useful item found while bin-digging. Casual departure by ~10:30am to head back up the Springwater to Splendid Cycles (I gotta be at work by noon). As usual, this event is for cargo bikes AND the cargo-curious. Any and all bikes are welcome, from short to long and tall to small. Bring a good attitude or don't come at all.
