You are Now Arriving at your Final Destination: Beer

I tend to be a bit cranky in the morning, at least enough-so that in full consciousness, I feel embarrassed by my slumber drunk rants and raves. Put it nicely, I was quite short with a friend when he excitedly called at 7:30 this past morning. To be fair, I had only acquired 3.5 hours of sleep, but to be equally fair, it was a magical day to be excited about: East End Brewery's Pale Ale Pedal!

The gist of this ride is quite simple. Show up, rain or shine (and lets be honest, this is Pittsburgh, so it will and did rain), bike to an unknown destination, and drink a free beer! Oh, and the leaders of the ride are towing the kegs!

So despite being an crank-ball in the morning, I was quickly placated (and then fueled) by the sound of bike bells, smells of beer, and view of hundreds of bikers showing up all for the sake of taking a ride.

So thanks East End Brewery for getting me up at 7:30 to bike and drink!
