Mark your calendar for this upcoming event

Bicycle Fan Club ride to the ballgame
Sunday, June 25
Exact details still TBD, but I have already procured 16 tickets in section 305 for the 1:35 ballgame, Nationals v. Reds, which I’ll make available discounted to $25 each for Bicycle Fan Club riders.

The ride will precede the game with the intent to arrive at the bike valet by about 12:45 – 1:00.

More details to follow. Watch this thread.

I’m in! Assuming there are still tix….I’m going to use this as the shakedown ride for my new bike, which comes today. I’m going out of town first thing tomorrow through Saturday, so Sunday will be my first real chance to ride it.

I’m in for 2 tickets. Bringing bentbike jr. (age 16) who curiously takes after his mother and rides an upright bike.

Just 4 tickets left!!

Those of you who are in, I will email your game ticket to you in advance for you to print out. Probably tomorrow night.
You will be responsible for remembering your own tickets.

(I can bail you out if you are forgetful…but with well deserved shaming)

No e-tickets? Any chance someone can print mine out for me? Unless I am at work, I do not have access to a printer.
(Yes, I know… But why buy a printer and ink and paper when I can just use the really nice printer at work?!)

I have taken a screen shot of my ticket and pulled up the pic at the entrance

I’m happy to print yours out for you if SteveO sends it to me or if you forward to mitc5502 at gmail.

That said, if you make a last-minute call and show up Sunday morning to join us, I have some strategies to get you in. Don’t let the lack of a ticket deter you from coming.

I can see this whole printing thing is painful for some of you. As Chris said, if you can get the barcode to show on your phone, you can scan that to get into the game. I will have all the tickets on my phone as backup. They will be going out by email shortly.

Also, the weather for Sunday looks to be ineffably sublime.

Steve O: We’ll be there with my own group, though not by bike (this time). Section 110. We’ll wave at you…

BTW, since you expressed interest, my Papillon Cycles Fireworks Ride is now posted. Look under Events…

Hey guys! the #ClimateRideKitty Biking Bake Sale will be on tomorrow for this event! Bring your dolla dolla bills if you want any of the homemade cookies I’m staying up waaay to late to make.
(As always, all donations go to my Climate Ride fund, and eventually WABA)

The menu is non-melty: peanut butter oatmeal cookies, and cherry pie “laurabars.” :p

This was loads of fun!! So much that I may see if I can pull off another in September (will need to figure out ticket logistics).
A couple of pics. I know others took better ones than mine.

Thanks for a great ride Steve!

And thanks to all of you for humoring my son. The ride and ballgame were a bit of a make-up Fathers’ Day activity for us as I was away last weekend. When his mother asked him what was the biggest surprise of the day, he said it was that, “Dad’s bike friends are not weird.” So, you have that going for you.
