*Bikes Not Bombs BIKE-A-THON!*
* Sun. June 8 *

JOIN THE FUN! Choose from 15, 25, or 62 mile routes. Great for families!
Great for distance trainers and racers! Great for regular old bikers! Ride at your own pace with full support: maps, route markings, mechanics, rest stops, food, and following vehicles. This is the 21st Annual Bike-A-Thon so we know how to take care of you. Rides start 9-10 AM. Full details at www.bikesnotbombs.org/bat08

Pre-Registration is now required (details below). Don't wait! Register now,
start your fundraising, and get pre-ride support, activities, and fundraising advice from BNB. Once you're registered, BNB gives you a rider packet, a pledge sheet, a coupon, and other goodies.

REGISTER BY FRIDAY, MAY 9 and you are invited to a special dinner party here at the BNB Hub, 284 Amory St. in the Brewery, 6 - 8:30pm! It's a special gathering just for registered B.A.T. riders - complete dinner including vegan pizza, and presentations by Carl Kurz (founder of BNB) and Jon McCurdy (an amazing volunteer who was last year's top fundraiser). If you and your
friend still haven't registered by then, come on down to the party and we can register you on the spot!

Prizes for top TEAMS & other categories, including of course, fundraising!
And mind-boggling grand prizes: getaways for two in the woods of Maine, one during the Micro-Brew Festival, both courtesy of Back Country excursions:
famous MOUNTAIN BIKE MECCA! www.bikebackcountry.com

The after-party for your ride is the GREEN ROOTS FESTIVAL - an outdoor environmental festival with live music (featuring the Branches Pan Groove Steel Drum Band and more), info tables (environmental orgs!) with educational workshops, food (free dinner for riders), and it's open to the public. Noon to 5 PM. This will be really fun as well as educational, and it's in honor of
you and your fellow riders! Keynote speaker is best-selling author BILL McKIBBEN!
