Dallas Cycle Style

Get Ready for a Week of Cycling Chic, Dallas!

April 1, 2011 in Random | by APopken | 4 comments

Dust off your bike and join the revolution! Bikes all over the city! A whole week of ways for you to show your biking love in Dallas (and celebrate our newly updated Bicycle Master Plan!)

Represent your cycling style at our first ever Cyclist Census, see some great shots of biking in Dallas on display at Eno’s, come for happy hour at the Texas Theatre and see old classic “The Bicycle Thief”, vote for your favorite cyclist to be our Face of Biking in Dallas, race around town to win the Spring Poloride photo scavenger hunt, relax at Main Street Gardens watching “Peewee’s Big Adventure” on the lawn, then end the week learning to play Bike Polo and watching (or competing in!) the tournament.

It’s an action-packed week of bicycle love just for you, Dallas.

Spotted this little beauty at lunch outside Gonzalez on Jefferson – check out the handlebars’ thrifty penny decor. Could definitely pick up groceries in a skirt with this one.

Spotted at Northpark: the Gap’s sporting a bright orange urban commuter bike in their display. Nothin too fancy but it’s definitely made for jumping curbs and protecting your khakis from any mud you encounter.

How Chic is Cycling at Neiman’s?

Well, the Neiman Marcus store in downtown Dallas has the bicycle front & center sharing the limelight in its Main Street window. I don’t think Chanel is going into bike manufacturing, but I do believe that’s a beautiful little Chanel pannier on the back there.

Nailing Down a Plan

Last week we had a feverish brainstorm (along with a few beers) at Eno’s. Face-of-Dallas-Biking contest, cyclist flashmob with photographers, bike polo, bike parade for the kiddos, maybe even some Trail Days in Dallas rides that all converge downtown? More details to come as things start to solidify – come to the next planning meeting if you have a calling to organize. If you’re interested in getting your neighborhood involved in the festivities and need some inspiration give us a shout.

Let’s get together at Eno’s Pizza Tavern this Thursday the 10th. Come have a beer and bring your ideas to create some pizazz in the biking culture in Dallas. The inspiration is the Radlhauptstadt München project in Germany:
