Next Round? September 19th


The humid August ride went (and felt) swimmingly as ~45 quality folks came out for Charlotte Hord-Smith's unofficial birthday cruise. We have to give a shout-out to the Cup Cake Brigade for supplying carbo-loaded baby cakes to everyone. They went really well with a good IPA.
We always enjoy visiting Carrboro biker bar, The Reservoir. The 24ounce PBRs are always cold and Brewer Lane is easily accessible from the bike path.

Please accept our apology for the technical difficulty with the accompaniment. We are saving our pennies for a new rockin' sound system and hope to be back thumpin' the sidewalks by September's ride. Music by bike ain't easy, but it sure is pleasy.
Speaking of September, we are ready for the NEXT ROUND! the cruise date will be 9/19 and promises to be a Carrboro-cult-classic. The ride WILL be themed so be ready to don your creative caps. The Cat's Cradle will be hosting a veritable Merge Records' fest with M.Ward headlining and Lambchop getting folks wound up beforehand. Cruiser-Tuesday will do its best to host a post-ride outdoor party before the Cradle happenings. If you think you'll go to the Cradle show that night, get your tickets early.
More on the September theme ASAP!

Cruiser Ride This Tuesday 8/22

Summer is fading. Bring on the nightime low-70s again! Cruiser-Tuesday reactivates this coming Tuesday, 8/22. It's been a year since we mobilized for our first street fiesta. Hearken back with Phillip Barron's words or Jack Edinger's photos.

We are observing no theme this month but its time to catch up with friends and share summer escapades. Bring stories if you have them. As always, cruiser rides are a good time to get freaky so come unabashed. No theme doesn't mean no Freak. We love the fringe.

As usual we meet in the Clean Machine Pkg. lot in Carrboro.
Socialize at 7pm. Cruise at 7:30
