The TITS Tuesday bike ride group is organizing a group ride to the parade at 9:30 AM on March 17, 2012. This following is from their Facebook event page:
Meet up at Main Street Garden in Downtown Dallas and we will ride to the Greenville Avenue St. Patrick’s Day Parade! Bicycle is REALLY the best way to get around in all that craziness–they anticipate 100,000 people this year. IT IS SO MUCH FUNNNN!!
Wear green, go nuts. Put green stuff on your bike. Bring beads. If you choose to bring a flask, be discreet. Wear your helmets (I fall on this ride every year…must be something to do with the green beer).
The “official” block party afterwards is for SUCKERS, so the plan is to parade our bikes thru the M-Streets/Lower Greenville neighborhood and hit all the awesome house parties. If you’ve never done this it will restore your faith in Dallas. Tons of people open their homes to complete strangers–they’ll have kegs of green beer in the yard, a DJ in the garage, etc. They’ll even let you use their restrooms! You don’t have to pay for anything, but I like to bring some cash to leave the cook/dj/bartenders for a tip. We can bounce through the neighborhood and make a bunch of new friends (with free beer).
**Meet up at 9:30, Roll out at 10**

The animation is nice. But this day is for St. Patrick, who was a revolutionary. He fought for the Irish People’s right. He genuinely put himself for Christianity. So we should not make fun of him and should respect him. i remember one of the beautiful Irish Sayings – All sins cast long shadows.
[…] going to be at the Greenville Avenue St. Paddy’s Day parade, you’re going to be riding your bike. From my perspective, there’s really no other reason to be at that […]
