This isn’t necessarily a bike specific event, though I’d recommend pedaling to this grand opening as opposed to driving as the management told me they’ve already had 600 people RSVP and parking is hard to come by. It’s a new restaurant called SMOKE, beside the Belmont Hotel (where we hold our Bike-In Movies), and they […]

The Transit Bicycle Company is launching its grand opening this Sunday, September 13th from noon to sunset. TBC is billing itself as Dallas’ premiere fixed gear bike shop, and is planning a full day of events from an alley cat race, track stand competitions, group ride, and more. Should be a lot of fun.

My wife just got a job at SMU, and was able to nab a coveted (by me) DART pass for a discounted rate. With that in mind, we’ve had several friends who I envy that have officially gone car free, and wanted to do the breakdown to see how much we’d save by also making […]
As part of the 10 Day Cyclesomatic Festival, Eno’s Tavern and New Belgium Brewing are proud to present the documentary “Beer Wars” on Saturday, October 3rd at 7PM. The film profiles the struggle of the small brewing company against the large commercial industry in the US. There will be free beer samples onsite, and a […]
(from the nowtopian) A new bikelane and plaza on Broadway in New York. 6 months ago, these were car lanes.
