Thursday 12/3 is a Loose Cannons in poker run format that starts at Keirin on the Beach, includes stops to pick up playing cards at four bars, and then finishes at The News to compare card hands. The person with the strongest (or most marvelous) hand wins. This event is less of a race and more of a opportunity for hooting and hollering.

Friday 12/4 marks the opening of a Lance Armstrong-themed exhibition at a Gallery. And then Bicycle Film Festival starts on 12/10.

But first things first. Let’s demonstrate our poker prowess by meeting at Andalusia & Galiano at 8:45pm on Thursday 12/3, then riding out to the race start. I have not ridden in months and it is very windy today but my friends promised not leave me behind.
