You're all invited to our BikeFest bash on August 14th. This year is going to be fantastic (not unlike previous years). Purchase your tickets in advance! Great food, drinks, and music including the Bike Czar's new band!
VIP BikePGH Stimulus Party: 6:30 - 8pm: $100
The main event: 8pm - 12am: $30 (general admission) or $10 recession special
By the way, if you're reading this and run a local bike club or organization (Major Taylor's, WPW, PTAG, PORC, DORC, etc) we want you at the party showing off your org. Every org/club will get some free tickets. We want this to be a big bicycle love fest so people find out about all the great bike stuff going on in the city.
Hey Everyone,
We're trying to raise money for more bike advocacy with this party (more bike lanes, racks, working with the port authority, maps, sharrows, etc.) Please help by 1. buying a ticket and 2. sharing this with all your local family and friends, social networking sites, twitter etc. Thanks!!!

sorry to hijack the thread. but this is my excuse for not being able to go to the big fancy vip party, which i admit i kinda wanted to go to.

Alas I will be going to my parents' on Friday and will miss all of BikeFest, including the party and the ride 
I don't suppose y'all would reschedule it for me and caitlin?

I'll be there taking pictures of everyones calves, among other things.
i have to say, that of all the parties i like to go to, this is the one i get the most excited about

thanks everyone!
This is always the best party of the year. So wonderful to see that there's more "bike people" each time, along with old friends.
Downside: I think I was still hung over Sunday morning
it's official. the party pics made it to yinzerparty.com
there's a good one of you dave
I'm terrified to look. Though I do remember someone taking an extreme closeup of my Garbella-made "I [bike] PGH" shirt
that's the one. they used it as the thumbnail to represent the whole party
oh my god all the pics of wizard sticks
also i had no idea there was a yinzerparty.com site. hahaha!
I think I finally recovered from that party.
i had no clue yinzerparty.com existed either
Finally posted all 160 photos from the party~!
