The Soundry Social Ride

Tonight a group of us met at Bikes @ Vienna, rode out to the Reston Town Center and on the way back stopped at the new coffee shop/art house, The Soundry.

It was a crisp cool night and a full moon. In all we had at least 13 riders with a mix of tandems, trikes and a heavier duty transport bike (think European cargo bike). The pace was nice, the group stayed together, took a couple of breaks to verify that everyone was still with the pack.

Back at the Soundry we created a new kind of "biker bar". In all 10 riders stopped for a night cap. The front entrance literally looked like a "biker bar" from the movies, except it was with bikes & trikes.

Thank you to everyone who came out. One of the participants took some pictures. Hopefully I can post a link to them soon.
