\"2014_gigantic_bicycle_festival_poster\"<\/a>Looking for something bikey and musical to do the weekend of August 23 & 24? You better reserve it for Gigantic Bicycle Festival<\/a>\u00a0and the WA Bikes team.<\/p>\n

Gigantic Bicycle is a Pacific Northwest summer celebration of bicycle culture. The festival combines live music, visual and performance art, film, hand-built bicycles, speakers, and more into a two-day event in Snoqualmie.<\/p>\n

Nearly one-third of the Gigantic Bicycle Festival attendees will arrive by bike on Saturday, August 23 as part of a supported ride from Magnuson Park in Seattle to the festival grounds in Snoqualmie. We hope you\u2019ll be one of them when you register as a team rider for Washington Bikes<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Register as a team rider for Washington Bikes<\/a><\/span> and Gigantic will donate 15% of your registration fee to Washington Bikes at no extra cost to you<\/em>. Select Washington Bikes as your team and use the password \u201cwashingtonbikes.\u201d<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Rider registration includes a weekend festival pass, a Gigantic Bicycle Festival jersey, and Bike Reels screenings and Inky Spokes gallery events throughout the year. You have two fairly challenging routes to choose from: a century ride and a 77-mile option.<\/p>\n

Overnight camping is available as an add-on option for the ride so you can make a weekend of it. Go to the Gigantic Bicycle Festival<\/a> website to learn more about the event and their weekend line-up.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
