ParticipantI propose that we crowdsource the costume that Tim Kelley will wear!

ParticipantWell, we already know that he owns a bikini….
I’m thinking he would look good in sparkly, pink tulle.

Her salutation suggested she’s only inviting one of us, and I think it’s Tim because he looks so pretty in pink.

ParticipantNaw, it’s because there’s only one gentleman on this forum. The rest of you are hoodlums and scofflaws.
(Or, perhaps it was a low caffeine late afternoon typo moment…)

I think you’re pretty spot on with the hoodlum and scofflaw thing.

ParticipantMore info from Nelle…
We just mapped out Saturday’s Route. We’ll be riding a little over an hour at a leisurely pace and avoid most of DC’s hills. We’ll stop at two DC landmarks where wedding trinkets are aplenty. There won’t be shopping, thank goodness, but there will be bathroom and snack breaks if necessary.
We’ll end the celebration with some dancing tunes, and savory treats, and warm alcoholic and nonalcoholic beverages.
Plus, the weather looks fabulous. Blue skies and crisp autumnal temperatures. Pull out your dresses and find your darling matching sweaters!
~~~
Many of us have frilly, lacy, taffeta-based skeletons in our closets: You know, bridesmaid dresses that haven’t found much use since our cousin’s vows were exchanged a few years back. Pull out your obnoxious wedding-wear and get on your bike!
This social ride is for anyone who identifies as a woman or who wants to wear a dress. We always have a strict no rider left behind policy, and will start the beginning of the ride with a quick skillshare on group riding, and city biking.
It will move at a leisurely pace and will, of course, end with food and libations at Angles Bar, your new favorite bar in the heart of Adams Morgan.
Bring:
-Your most flamboyant bridesmaid dress and possibly a darling warm sweater to boot
-Your friends
-Bicycle, lock, lights, water
-Weather appropriate clothing
-Helmets mandatory, as alwaysGetting there:
-Meridian Hill Park is accessible via the U Street Metro Station, buses, bikeshare, is surrounded by on-street parking, and Car2Go.Mark you calendar, find your froofy dress, invite your friends!
Let us know you’re coming on the Facebook event page! (Or, here on the forum.)
