Ride with Bike Snob NYC

0 Comments 19 June 2010Print This Post

In case you hadn’t heard, Eben Weiss of BSNYC is in town to read some passages from his book and scratch his name into a few of them for all the doting BSNYC fans in Portland.

Even better? There will be a ride before the event that starts at Chris King Components. This is your chance to ride with the snob. Don’t miss it – from what I can gather after sharing 50 minutes of airtime with him on NPR (which admittedly isn’t much to go on) , he’s a really nice guy.

Also, it’s Father’s Day. And Eben is a new dad. So we should make him feel warm and cozy in that cuddly Portland way (see below).

Details

Extra: “Bike Snob just became a new dad but he’ll be spending this first Father’s Day with us. Let’s show him how much we care by bringing him handmade Father’s Day cards (construction paper and crayon preferred) Gifts of drugstore cologne and ties are also encouraged.”

Where to meet: 2801 NW Nela Street Portland Oregon 97210

When:5pm, June 20th – TOMORROW!

What: Ride with the snob. Starts at Chris King* Ends at Powell’s City of Books around 7pm. The snob will speak at 7:30pm with a book signing following.
