SUMMARY:Midwesterners Ride (and Tavern Hang)
CONTACT:Meg Horst
DESCRIPTION:Now 8-13\nJoin us for the almost 4th annual Midwesterners Ride
  (I missed hosting last year).\n\nCalling all Midwest transplants to 
 Portland. You count even if you lived in Chicago for only 3 months when 
 you were 21\, or if you were born in South Dakota but moved before you 
 could walk. Heck\, youbetcha count if you're just Midwest curious!\n\nLike
  last time\, bring your best potluck contribution (hot dish\, beer brats\,
  scotcheroos\, New Glarus\, Cincinnatti chili\, etc) and wear something 
 that shows your Midwest pride.  We'll eat\, ride (follow the cheeshead!) 
 and stop halfway for some short card games (20 minutes or so). Bring a 
 deck and show off your best euchre\, gin rummy\, or whatever card game 
 your aunt and uncle played while drinking old fashioned’s. (It's okay if 
 you don't know games- a friendly midwesterner will teach you!)\n\nWe'll 
 end at the Midwest inspired Jerry’s Tavern (optional) for ongoing hanging.
  \n\nWe might argue about the exact boundaries of the Midwest\, whether it
  is "soda" or "pop\," and which state is best (obviously Wisconsin) but 
 what we agree on:  It's not the heat\, it's the humidity.\n\nI heard some 
 people made best friends on this ride in past years and I hope it happens 
 again!\n\nI better not keep ya.  See ya soon\, ope!\nMeet for potluck at 
 6pm\, Ride at 6:45pm\nEnds at Jerry's Tavern\, a Midwest inspired 
 bar\nhttps://shift2bikes.org/calendar/event-24438
LOCATION:Irving Park\n7th and Fremont Ave NE\nMeet by the bathrooms
