When the F---ing Bike Club’s popular cycling meetups — with stops at various watering holes along the way — ended this summer after six years of successful rides about town, it didn’t take long for participants to fill the void it left. Two monthly rides, the Fourth Friday Pub Peddlers and the Swamp Ride, sprang up in its place. Not coincidentally, both meet and depart (usually on different nights) from the FBC’s old stomping grounds, The Swamp Tavern in Browne’s Addition. This weekend, the two groups are coming together for a Halloween-themed ride (read: costumes encouraged) to an undisclosed, top-secret location. Beer, costumes and bikes — sounds like quite the spectacle for all involved.
