Patriotic Pub Pedal and New Belgium Brewery Anniversary Party.
Thursday, June 30th is our annual Patriotic Pub Pedal. Decorate yourself and/or your bike with a patriotic theme to celebrate Independence Day.
Instead of meeting at the Shamrock though, meet at the Anchor where we’ll join the New Belgium Brewery’s anniversary party and ride. This ride starts at 7:00pm so don’t be late. After this ride we’ll return to the Anchor where they’ll have several New Belgium beers on tap.

The Anchor is just East of Washington on Douglas.

An article from the Salina Journal about the Coasters at the Smoky Hill River Festival…

Looking at the rows of Schwinn, Evans, Iver Johnson and other vintage bicycles, Jim Kirk couldn’t help but be nostalgic.

“I used to ride some of these,” the Salina man said. “I used to have a Schwinn. These take me back to my childhood.”

Kirk was visiting an exhibit Friday, titled “Art of the Bicycle,” near the Bicentennial Center bridge entrance to the Smoky Hill River Festival. The exhibit was a collection of vintage, factory-fresh and modified bicycles, along with a few manufactured oddities and sculptures, that attempts to show a time-capsule history of the bicycle and what it has meant to generations of children and adults.

May 21st thru 27th, 7:00pm – 11:00pm at the Go Away Garage, 508 S Commerce, Wichita, KS.
