Bike Ride - 5pm | Gathering - 7pm
After 10+ amazing years, we (John Simmerman and Laura Dierenfield) are wishing a fond aloha to Austin and moving closer to family...To express our love and appreciation for this truly special place and the incredibly generous, creative and passionate people we've met along the way, we invite y'all to join us on a fun bike ride featuring some of the most exciting elements of Austin's bicycle and pedestrian network followed by a gathering to say goodbye and boost support for the organizations that have made living here so meaningful.
John and Laura ask you to consider that if the last 10 years of growth in our bicycle and pedestrian network has meant anything to you & your friends and family, please give $1, $2, $10 - whatever you can - for every year you experienced that value and match your gift year for year to keep these important groups strong for the next decade. Here are a few of the groups that have really made a huge difference in our quality of life in Austin, and I'm sure yours, too.
To join the bike ride, kindly sign the Bike Texas waiver ahead of time. Thank you! Please also feel welcome to skip the ride and join us for the gathering at 7pm. There will be live music by Fallon Franklin, food (sandwhich variety, including vegan/gluten free options) and drinks (sparking water, juice, soda, non alcoholic beer) available. We hope to see you there!
