Save the Date: A Kidical Halloween: Bike-or-Treat!

[dasgeh]

If you’d like to help with Kidical Mass Arlington’s Halloween ride, we can always use ride marshalls and photographers. If you or your friends would like to help in a less-bikey way, we’re going to need a handful of people to hand out candy for the bike or treat (basically, we’re going to have 3-4 places where we position folks with candy to give out — those folks will be at the curb and just hand candy to cycling kids/parents as they roll by (and probably stop). The more people we have giving out candy, the smoother this will go.

Thanks!

Saturday, October 25: Cider and doughnuts and COSTUMES!

Bust out your superhero capes, dust off your magic wands: it’s time to celebrate Halloween, bike-style! Join us on Saturday, October 25 for a bike ride, costume contest, and cider-and-doughnuts party hosted by Capitol Hill Bikes.

We’ll do the ride as a progressively-advancing bike train with meetups in Columbia Heights, Brookland, Eckington, and Capitol Hill. First meetup is at 10:00 am at Columbia Heights Plaza.

The celebrity judge for our costume contest will be none other than Gear Prudence, the Washington City Paper’s tongue-in-cheek bicycle advice guru. Prizes — generously supplied by Capitol Hill Bikes — will be awarded for best bike-based costume, as well as other categories that we will probably make up on the spot.
