WABA Holiday Party – December 14 – Big Bear Cafe – 6:00 to 11:00

[acc]

Tonight, for one night only, is the WABA Holiday Party at the Big Bear Cafe 1700 1st Street NW, Washington DC.

Need a last minute holiday gift? The first 100 WABA members will receive a free gift to keep and treasure (or wrap up and give away).

Looking for cheap spiked drinks? There will be discounted spiked cider available.

Feeling lucky? There will be cheap raffle tickets on sale for, shockingly enough, bike prizes.

Craving vegetarian chili, and who doesn’t? It will be available.

Worried about where to put your bike? There will be plenty of bike parking but bring a U-lock. Otherwise your bike may wind up being repurposed and accidentally *gifted*. (I’m in the market for a carbon-fiber ride.)

Can’t get there early or can’t stay late? It’s between 6:00 pm and 11:00 pm — everyone can make it.

I know you’re dying to know what the suggested donation for WABA members is, $5.00, a trifle for so much holiday spirit.

I couldn’t make it, but I wasn’t too far away. I was out on a holiday fun run with the tri club, starting from Union Station. I hope to make it to a future WABA event.

How is the DC Brau?

No PBR. In fact, I might seek to have WABA institute a No PBR policy (this tolerance stuff can be taken too far, you know . . .).

Was a good evening with lots of great people. I feel like I didn’t get to spend enough time with everyone, despite being there until the lights went on.

I think it was a fine location – Big Bear has been the host to (very successful) used-bike sales by local co-ops for a while now.

Also, I heard WABA’s Greg Billing *drove* there. What kind of “cycling advocate” would do that?!

I swear I saw Greg driving down 8th St SE the other day… shameful.
