First Annual Intergalactic Surly Bicycle Summit - April Fools Day

We're throwing a party on April Fools day to celebrate bicycles and the people who love them.  Our Intergalactic Surly Summit will bring the non-competitive cycling community together to ride bikes, share stories, and enjoy a great time with awesome people. We'll have a bike show, swap meet, ride-out, and a visit to our favorite local brewery.
