Welcome to Minneapolis
Land of 10,000 (Refreshing) Lakes

It's summer.

It's the best place in the world to be.  The City of Lakes, Bikes and Beer are in active form and the fleshy, shirtless Minnesotans remind us of this.

As long as my wireless covers the back porch, I'll keep you in the loop of this wonderment.

Nine Days Until Festaroon

Nine days until The Bike Bar touches down in Portland for the adventure trip of the season.

Planning our two-wheeled pony retreat, we kicked around the idea of having it coincide with one of the major beer festivals. Due to scheduling, we picked a weekend and figured we would postulate our own beer tour if something did not arise.

Friends. Something is a-rose-ing.

What's better than riding bicycles and drinking beer?

Bicycles and organized beer drinking.

The Oregon Brewers Guild is hosting its 2009 Barleywine Festaroon at the Lucky Labrador Beer Hall, in Northwest Portland.

A 36 beer list will attempt to make jovial friends with the members of The Bike Bar.  We, in turn, will welcome them with a smile and extend a gentlemanly handshake.

...and then call each beer a cowardly cheat, challenging it to a leg-wrestling match.

I've got my money on Andrew pulling favorites.

He has cankles.
