Each month the routes get more interesting as we add new stops to our collection. This month is no different.

If you weren’t among those who made their reservations before we sold out this month, don’t despair! In May we are going to offer TWO Urban Restaurant Tours.
We will announce those dates later this week. Stay tuned; as usual, we are capped at 100 riders per URT in order to ensure safety and an “EPIC” experience for everyone involved.

Last night’s URT was worth the wait…we totally stuffed ourselves with panini, gelato, wings, fries, salad, the most amazing mac-n-cheese ever, shredded pork, tender juicy beef brisket, cole slaw, steamed veggies, boneless chicken breast, more salad and who could forget dollar drafts!

Over $481 in Raffle Prizes Given Away Last Night!
And how about that hot new collection of I “BIKE” Tampa t-shirts? Last night we gave away an unprecedented $481 in SWAG from the corner of Ashley and Polk at Taps Wine and Beer Merchants. If you were one of the unlucky few who didn’t win anything last night, NOW you’re in LUCK…our next URT is right around the corner.
Anyone who thought Kellie would need a few days to recover from last night was dead wrong. Bright and early this morning she was back at it and today secured the following venues for the April 28 ride:
WE ARE NOW SOLD OUT!
