Let’s get together for an easy evening tour around town to view the Christmas lights by bicycle! (Weather-dependent of course). And….let’s decorate our bikes too! The brighter the better. Of course our regular bike lights on both the front and back of your bike are most important. It’s a great chance to get out and appreciate the lights. Afterward we can stop in somewhere for some eggnog to finish off the evening. Bundle up!
Date: Monday, December 11th, 6:00pm
Start location: Parking lot behind the Dutch Oven
Route: to be determined by those in attendance
Pace: Slow! Casual!
I’ll be there. With lights on!
Intrigued….
What a great idea ! Hoping the weather co-operates ! Where do we find the eggnog ??
That will be part of fun – finding the eggnog!
omg, I am going to freeeeeeze, but I’ll be there……bundled up in all manner of warmth. Just gotta figure out now how to power some lights on the bike. But that’s where Randy’s expertise enters!
I’m just going to use a few sets of battery lights. Looking forward to seeing what Randy comes up with. Maybe he can serenade us with some Christmas tunes too.
I LOVE this idea and will try to make it. I’m with Anita than re concerns for keeping warm. If you see a Micheline Man show up, that will be me.
Not suprisingly it’s all about the layers! With cold weather riding though it’s face, hands, and feet that freeze. A couple of pairs of gloves/mitts are good and if you don’t have bootie covers, some warm flat bottomed winter footwear that you can still operate the pedals with is essential. Even though I have bootie covers I plan to wear fuzzy lined clogs that work well for me on a bike with flat pedals. It’s fun when we’re warm!
Great tips Maria. And the hand warmers idea you had too!
I plan to ride and light up my wheels.
I will be there! Thanks Deb for organizing
Jen has kindly offered her place for a nip of eggnog after the ride! We can fill you in on more details on Monday eve or message me for the address. Ho Ho Ho!
I plan on being there all lit up! What a fun night this is going to be!
Found some lights today so I’ll be there.
Not keen on riding in the snow so I’ll give this a miss tonight. Too bad!
If you are on the hunt for lights….my secret source (Freda) told me she saw some at Giant Tiger. 🙂
