How cool is this? As part of Pedalpalooza, Portland’s 2 week long celebration of all things BIKE, a few genius ladies have organized the Hot Sock Ride…It’s an evening bike ride through PDX orchestrated around the city’s awesome sock culture.
Rock Socks is joining Portland-based sock world heavy-weights Sock Dreams and Sock It To Me to make the ride extra fun. In fact, we were honored with a request to host a mid-ride soiree at Sock Dreams’ Sellwood store – to which we of course said “YES!”
In true Portland fashion, the Hot Sock Ride is open to the public. Cyclists will gather this Friday, June 11, at 5:30 pm at the Vera Katz statue. Ride organizers will then lead the gang around Portland to a series of sock-related destinations. Rock Socks and Sock Dreams will be providing games, prizes, snacks and libations to riders before they head off to the SITM warehouse and ultimately wind down at an Alberta watering hole.
Find out more about the Hot Sock Ride and other Pedalpalooza events (including the Naked Bike Ride!) at the event’s site. And if you’re in Portland, the weather is supposed to be quite nice so you have no excuse not to join in the fun, stop by, say hi and show off your rad socks!
