This year we’ll also be doing things a little different.
Join us early on for the special VIP “Economic Stimulus” Pre-party, from 6:30 – 8:00. Howie Alexander’s jazz tunes will be the perfect accompaniment to Salt of the Earth’s Kevin Sousa, a local star chef and cyclist, who will provide the catering.
After the VIP event, the party will kick into gear with DJs, cycling clubs, and a silent auction. As usual, there will be a raffle of schwag, including a bike from Trek and one from KHS!! Details soon.
