Thanks a ton to NOW!, Morgan’s friend who donated the bikes to auction off, Bread SRSLY, Cyrpian’s ARC, Comrades, all of our sponsor farms, the lady who gave me all the free chicken & waffle potato chips, and all of y’all who came out!

For the last DasBike-In Movie Night we’ll be featuring a whole night of local bike films by the Bay Area’s finest!
As usually, we’ll have free dinner and could totally use help in the kitchen as early as 4:30pm! Come early to help out!
To get you in the mood for this month’s screening, we’re asking for your participation! Have you carried things by bike and captured it on film (digital or otherwise)? Post your photo to Instagram or Twitter using Hashtag #dasbike, #mindthegapmovie, #carriedbybike to share photos of your carried by bike set up. Did you use your bike for camping? Moving? Carrying your cat? Bringing home dinner? Carrying your friend?
Whether you carry a little or a lot, bikes are a fashionable way to carry all sorts of stuff. We’ll be creating a slide show of your pics and showing them before the films. Post by midnight Monday, May 26. And when posting, feel free to include a short note on where you were going with your stuff and how much fun it was to carry it by bike!

UPDATE:
I wanna do the SF 49 Mile Scene Ride. So I want to start early. Maybe do a sunset ocean ride too. I will post more info here, but email me if you want to be a part of the planning (dasbikesf at gmail).
So here’s the plan:
If you want to be on TV and in the geotagged archive mentioned in the trailer you have to sign up to participate in One Day In SF here. Ellie will bring a bunch of copies of the additional release form to the beer hangout, but you gotta sign up at the above link.
Ellie has agreed to edit our footage and show it at the final installment of the DasBike-In Movie Nights, where we’ll also be showing other bike films made by Bay Area people. I’m also thinking of doing group ride around town before meeting up at Alamo Square. Anybody interested?
Cool? Cool! Join the Facebook Event!
