Dorchester Pub Crank

Written by Boston Biker on May 12

Got this in the email, looks like a fun time. More info here.

————————

Adding to the amazing bike affinity and hipness of Dorchester… We received an anonymous tip that the first ever Dorchester Pub Crank will be held Sunday May 15th, starting at 5 pm. After an extensive web-search for the term “pub crank” we are also claiming it to be the first ever pub crank in the world. Our understanding is that a pub crank is like a pub crawl, but the participants ride (responsibly) on bikes from one establishment to the next.

It begins at the Banshee (934 Dorchester Ave.), and then continues on to Savin Bar and Kitchen, Harp & Bard, dbar, Blaney Stone, Centre Bar, The Ledge, Tavolo, and concludes (probably pretty late) at the Ashmont Grill.

There are important rules that must be followed:
Participants are disqualified for:
a. Being hit by a car
b. Crashing
c. Not having at least 3 drinks

    This sounds fun. (I’ll skip, since I’m pregnant and would be disqualified.) but it’s definitely not the first. These sorts of rides happened in Seattle all the time when I lived there a few years ago.

    Sounds fun, but I can imagine how it could potentially end very badly.

    Can you get a DUI on a bike?

    im pretty sure you can get a dui on your bike, they could also slap a public disorder, or public nuisance on you if they cant give you a dui…but these sort of events rarely devolve into that sort of thing.
