The Kickstand Circus - Cruiser Nite

Posted by Anna V
Friday, August 27, 2010
Begins: 7pm-9pm

The Kickstand Circus is a group of people who understand that only a cruiser is truly made for cruising, that sometimes style is more important than speed, and that no amount of “aftermarket cool” will turn your fixie into a cruiser.  You can only ride a cruiser bike on a cruiser nite. If this makes sense, you’re part of the Kickstand Circus.

* THE RULE*
We allow beach style cruisers and classic lowriders. No mountain bikes, road bikes, hybrids, fixies or bmx allowed. We have a wide range of legit cruisers from Haro, Giant & Norco available, starting at $359!

*THE KICKOFF*
We kick off the 2010 season on May 14 and cruise every second Friday until August 27th. All rides leave from Pedalhead Bicycle Works at 7:00 p.m. and will include “rest stops” at locally-owned establishments. The cruise is planned to last for at least 2 hours and no longer than 3 hours.

* THE NITES*
May 14th & 28th
June 11th & 25th
July 9th & 23rd
August 13th & 27th

* THE VITALS*
- A cruiser bike (see above).
- Helmet (required)
- Lights (Recommended for the first couple rides.)
- Lock (Recommended. You are responsible for your own bike.)
- You must be 18+ with ID. Our “rest stops” demand it.
- Enough coins in your pocket to buy yourself a refreshment. We’d like to think that when we stop our presence is appreciated.
