Question 1

Is this a bike ride?

Accepted Answer

No. Bikes & Beverages is primarily a social meetup and community conversation.

Some events may happen before or after rides or other bike-related events. We encourage sustainable transportation to and from all of our events however!

Question 2

Do I need to bike to attend?

Accepted Answer

Not at all. While many attendees will arrive by bike, anyone interested in community, transportation, city-building, or meeting new people is welcome.

Question 3

Do I need to drink alcohol?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely not.

Many events will happen at coffee shops, cafés, or other non-alcohol-focused venues. Even at breweries or pubs, there is never any expectation to drink alcohol.

Accepted Answer

No. Registration is optional and mainly helps people receive reminders, calendar invites, and updates if details change.
