Thirsty Riders Club Meeting: Postponed To February 4, 2009

Written by Boston Biker on Jan 28

Got this from MassBike today.

It looks like the winds may be too fierce, and the weather too inclement this Wednesday, so we’re postponing this little party until next week!

The winds are fierce, and the weather inclement, but winter bikers are intrepid! So bundle up and enjoy the first-ever MassBike Thirsty Riders Club. Come meet the MassBike staff, have a refreshing beverage, and eat some snacks. Enjoy the fine company of other bikers at Coogan’s Pub (171 Milk Street, Boston) on Wednesday, February 4, 2009, from 6-9pm. Ask questions of the MassBike staff, meet fellow bikers, and celebrate the joy that is winter in New England on a bicycle. Tell your funniest/scariest/strangest winter biking story. Come by foot, by T, or by bike, but make sure you show up! Snacks are on Coogan’s; drinks are on you.

No charge to join the club, but donations are always appreciated! RSVP not required, but if you know you’re coming, please let us know at [email protected].
