this weekend

update! our friends at the occupy san diego riders committee are planning a ride to come out and meet us for the building day, here is the info

2012 approaches

time to stock up is, before its too late!

hello internet! if you are wondering what bikes del pueblo has been up to then let me catch you up. our tacocat alley cat race was a roaring success, we had fourteen contestants complete the race that circled the city. then we had our monthly third friday ride which ended at saigon noodle house on el cajon boulevard.

and what does the future have in store? well besides 2012 being yet another end of the world your local bike coop is busy planning some new events. for the next two weeks we will not be either at the city heights farmers market or at the snowdrop garage for the holidays, and the bike stand at san diego state university is on break until the next semester. however january 8th we return for our regular sunday hours, followed by a special bar b q/parillada (vegan friendly!) for some extra organizing and cleaning. the next week on january 15 our sunday hours will be followed by a craft party, making use of some of the less ridable parts we have laying around.

as far as rides go, this friday is the occupy san diego riders mall raid which starts in the middle of the day. january 20 is our third friday ride, the beginning of the end of the world theme ride! dress up, bring music, etc etc to celebrate the first month of the last year ever.

we will return in two weeks with our workshop hours at the farmers market and snowdrop garage, but before then keep riding and have a good christmas/kwanza/hannukah/new year/etc

ride tonight!
