Biking the Burbs for Beers III3rd annual Biking the Burbs for Beers Bar Crawl Saturday September 7thThe ride is open to all, invite your friends

The 3rd anual Biking the Burbs for Beers is scheduled for Saturday September 7th. We will depart from downtown Flossmoor at 10:00 AM.
1st stop- Dino's Food & Liquors in The Heights for some great American beer, mimosas and bloody marys. 
2nd stop- J Martins's tap in Steger for some fruit salad and entertainment.
3rd stop- Paulie's Pub in South Heights for a buffet lunch and a few cold ones. Lunch menu TBD
4th stop- Chicago Heights West Golf course for a few cold ones out on the veranda.
We will end the ride in Flossmoor during the Flossmoor Fest for a nightcap, plan on returning sometime between 5:00 and 6:00.
Just a few thoughts for those of you that did not participate on the crawl in previous years.

  1. You don't have to be an avid cyclist to complete the route. Almost all of the riders in the past two years have been casual riders that spent very little time on a bike prior to the crawl. We even have one rider that had already seen his 80th birthday so don't be intimidated.
  2. Despite the name "Biking the Burbs for Beers", we would discourage anyone from over indulging. The ride is all about getting out, getting moving, having some fun along with a few cold ones. We encourage moderate drinking, heavy tipping and lots of fun. All in all it is a great way to spend a Saturday.
  3. We are not raising any money, nor dedicating ourselves to any mission nor trying to achieve some personal fitness level.We just want to see if we can ride a bike and drink some beers.
