412 Flock! is trying to stay true to its word by bringing welcoming, family-friendly, all-inclusive, FREE events, so we're doing our first CINCO DE MAYO ride to welcome & celebrate the growing hispanic and latino bike community emerging in our city!
Not only will we ride, we will also ***issue the 1st printing of the Spanish-language bike guide "BICI 101", with some basic information for spanish & bilingual bike users -a first for our city!*** This is something that 412 Flock! has been working together with Free Ride, the OTB (Over The Bar) Bicycle Cafe, and support from BikePgh.
AND IF YOU CAN'T RIDE - just join us at the OTB later around 8pm and Celebrate with us!!!
