Keg Ride 2009

On Friday, my favorite local brewery the East End Brewing Company did its annual "Keg Ride", involving the brew master ceremoniously towing a keg (3 actually) of Spring Pale Ale to a "mystery" bar.  An astonishing 500 (yes...500!!!!!!) riders showed up to ride along. 
Never mind "Critical Mass" and other mass statements about sustainable transport and environmentalism.....we were riding for BEER!

We literally clogged up the streets of Pittsburgh for a couple of hours on the way to the Bicycle Cafe on Carson Street. It was fab!


and this link for photographic evidence that I was there (I am the lanky dude in black on the far right of the photo wearing the silly helmet)

Ride on!!!
