wear an inflatable costume and ride a bicycle. It's much easier if your costume doesn't cover your face. but I might rock a T-Rex so don't ride so close to me. plan ahead, super easy to find costumes online. :) this will be one of your best summer memories for sure! We will ride to Grilled by Bike to eat their lunch, then ride to Irving Park for Kidical Mass and Ice Cream on Mississippi !! Were you at Pioneer Courthouse Square on Friday June 24, 2022 wearing an inflatableT-Rex costume setting a world record? https://www.instagram.com/p/CfRwcZcJdcg/ Still have your costume & notice how forlorn it is just sitting there? Have you ever wondered if it is possible to ride a bicycle in an inflatable costume? I have. And then I googled it. Much to my surprise, there are some people out there that have already ridden a bike in their inflatable T-Rex costume... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YOumG6HS-rY So, are you gonna live the entire summer without showing people how truly awesome, fun, and perhaps foolish, you are? Right!! I didn't think so. Have you still not ridden across the Blumenauer Bridge?? If you have, now you can do it in costume ! if you know Chris Guillebeau, would you please let him know he inspired me ! Need a costume? I bought my inflatable costume on Ebay for $44 bucks from someone in San Francisco, so it got to PDX in just 3 days so you have time to order yours! maybe get yours on ebay or some other online place. there are so many to choose from !! search online for "inflatable costume" and be amazed !. Please also email if you have questions. Bring Your Own Tape if you fear your rear wheel will eat your tail. ride at your own risk! but we will be riding at Parade Pace!
