In case you haven’t heard, today is the first day of Pedalpalooza, one of the many events occurring this summer to end in the unfortunately anachronistic suffix, -palooza. Join your fellow bike hipsters and lycra clad commuters tonight at Jamison Square (NW 10th and Johnson) at 6:15 for the Kick-Off Parade. If you want to be super-cool or at least mooch a free t-shirt, come to the Mercury offices (605 NE 21st Ave, off of Sandy by Club 21) at 5:30 and bike there with us.
