10:00AMRiders will gather at Essex Street Arts Center parking lot mid-block on Essex St (is a one-way from Massachusetts Ave). Please arrive by 10AM. Registration takes a while and we want to start right at 11:00.
10:00 – 11:00AM
Everyone participating as a individual or group must sign a waiver on-site. When your entire team has signed your team’s waiver, you will receive your manifest for the day’s fun in a sealed envelope.
10:59AM
GObike will address the crowd with safety instructions before all teams open their envelopes simultaneously to reveal:
– List of grocery stores from which to choose four
– Shopping list full of items FNB and Provisions 139 have expressed needs for
– Information about three different checkpoints spread throughout the city
11:00AM
LAUNCH! Everyone’s bikes will be on the opposite end of the parking lot, setting us up for a run/trot/walk Le Mans-style start.
RIDE:
Ride at your own risk on city streets. While teams are enticed to move quickly, this is NOT a race. It’s the choosing of an efficient route that will likely determine the winner.
You have a right to the road. You have a responsibility to ride in accordance with NYS and Buffalo laws (aka no riding on the sidewalk and riding with (not against) traffic).
-Choose 4 from an available 8 grocery stores.
-Hit all 3 checkpoints.
-Keep all of your receipts.
FINISH:
Bring all your groceries back to us to be weighed!
You’ll hand your receipts in as a batch, show us your checkpoint stickers, and move on to Lindsay DeDario’s photo studio to get your donations weighed.
After that, the post party!
We’ll tally times, amounts spent, and total weight, and announce all category winners by 2PM (ideally). Party ends at 3PM sharp.
