Mass Bike fundraiser

Today, I went to the annual Redbones fundraiser for the Massachusetts Bicycle Coalition. Mass Bike, as they’re known, promotes a bicycle-friendly environment in Massachusetts through advocacy and community building. I’m not a biker, but I’m all for orgs that take more cars off the roads.

This is a street party that basically takes place on my block. And I would have gone anyway to see friends, including the team at Redbones, which is a very neighborhood-friendly, civic-minded restaurant. Seriously, they even snowblow our sidewalks in winter. I bought a few raffle tickets to boost my impact, but I didn’t win anything. And that’s perfectly fine.
