BAFS 2016 Freezing Saddles Closing Happy Hour

[kwarkentien]

It’s hard to believe but this idiocy–I mean wonderful challenge–that we call Freezing Saddles is currently coming to an end at midnight this Saturday/cusp of Sunday. But fret not dear friends as your BAFS 2016 happy hour committee has been busy planning a fete worthy of the most skilled, roadworthy, badass cyclists the world has ever seen.

So come join us for the closing happy hour:

Where: Mr Smith’s of Georgetown, 3205 K St NW, Georgetown
When: Thursday, 31 March 2016, 1700-2000hr (5-8pm for you non-military time aficionados)

We will provide a bike corral like last time and will be in the upstairs room again. Additionally, we had $$$ left over from last time so we’ll have lots of vittles for you and maybe even some pitchers of beer!

Best of all, we’ll be awarding those fantastic pointless prizes that everyone was been busily vying for and crowning the winners all around. What could be more fun than eating, drinking, and celebrating with your fellow BAFSers? I can’t think of anything better.

If you can make it to our grand affair, please reply to this thread so we’ll know how much grub to order. We hope to see you there!

Yes: there will be beer. But whether you will be able to find yourself some half-empty glasses is anyone’s guess….
Cheers.

If he needs a half empty glass, I will be happy to half empty it for him.

Are kids (12 year old) OK at this bar?

[ramblingrider]

Sorry, I have rehearsals on Thursdays.

FYI, the Nuclear Security Summit will be held Thursday, March 31st through Friday, April 1st in DC, with the DC Convention Center and the Marriott Marquis Hotel as the main venues. There will be many street closures and traffic restrictions. I know most of you bike commute, but for those of us who mostly get around by car, this is a giant pain and could make it very difficult to get to the happy hour that night. Just a heads up!

Organizers, a huge thanks for putting this together!

I’ll be there, but not until 6:15 or so. Please don’t put me early on the list of pointless-prize presenters.

[Stryke]

I’m planning on being there.

Oh I am, am I?? Yeah, ok, I probably will buy you a beer.

Yep, they’re fine, so long as they are not drinking alcohol.

[Kitty]

I’ll be there, with the Michigander prize for snow day riding.

I likely won’t be able to get there before 6pm though…

By the by thanks for arranging. Is there a cover/contribution this time as well?

[vvill]

I will try to make it but unfortunately can’t confirm yet. If I do make it, I will present the N+1 prize, but it will probably be best if it’s towards the later end of the awards.
