Ride Studio Cafe Hosts the 11-11-11 Exhibit & Ride

What: 11-11-11: The Day Fixed & Singles Took Over
When: Friday, November 11 at 7:30pm ’till 10:00pm. Then a ride from 10:00
– 11:30 pm
Where: Ride Studio Cafe, 1720 Massachusetts Avenue, Lexington, MA 02420
Why: We’ve got 18 one-gear works of art on display for Friday evening
only

The Exhibit: One-Gear Rolling Art

See some incredible examples of functional bikes as artistic expressions of
rider passion. The One-Gear exhibit is open to all types of fixed-gear and
single-speed bikes. We’ve got some local bike builders and designers
signed up for the exhibit:

Framebuilders’ bikes on display:
> Geekhouse Bikes – Local favorites and troublemakers
> Honey Bikes – Presenting a stealth commuter: black beauty with a
belt-drive
> Panda Bicycles – A bamboo single
> Royal H Cycles – Agonizing artistry
> Saila Bicycles – Simple and clean custom frames
> Seven Cycles – Local custom bike builder displaying a super-light
titanium belt-drive single and a custom fixie fabricated from titanium and
carbon
> Sketchy Cycles – A rare one-gear with even more rare rabbits
> And a few other local builders!

A few of the impressive “Working Class” singles on display will include:
> Classic stainless steel Ryhgin – extremely rare
> Independent Fabrication “Pixie Fixie”
> Cielo fixie – difficult to find on the East Coast
> Workhorse fixie that’s survived all manner of the harshest New
England weather imaginable
> Creative singlepeed workhorse bike built for the long haul
> And a few other one-off self-made one-gears

The Contest: One-Speed – Fast

Entrants are bringing their favorite one-speed bikes to show in the
exhibit, and to be happily judged by all in attendance. Four categories –
including “Most Creative Solution”, a couple thousand dollars worth of
prizes, and too many cool bikes to fit in the Studio. Sounds good to us!

The Party

Really, it’s all a party. If you’ve been to a Studio gathering before,
you may know what to expect. If you haven’t been to an RSC party before,
please join us for a dynamite time.

Studio Cafe’s infamous hot chocolate and our rarely seen affagatos are
the special drinks of the evening. Yeah, they have some caffeine and sugar
in them but that may be a good thing, so you can raucously participate
in…

The Ride: Rally Rabbit

Okay, really it’s all about the ride. At 10pm sharp we’re heading out
to roll on some of the secret amazing roads, alleys, trails – and some
stuff we don’t even know what to call – within a few miles of the
Studio. The entire 75-minute ride takes place in Lexington proper.
Don’t snicker; it’ll be a ride to remember! We have a few surprises up
our arm-warmers, too.

Get a glimpse of the Grey Nuns. Look upon the Land of the Misfit Toys.
Venture through Youville. Behold THE Belfry – sans bats. Genuflect before
a real life Genie. And endure many other vaunted and haunted gems in our
historied town. Then, at the stroke of 11:11:11 pm we’ll be calling on
the one-gear spirits – both liquid and ephemeral – for good fortune
throughout the coming season.
