Who’s turning 34? Rudz is! And to prove it, we’re throwing an all day celebration. And you’re invited, and you, and you, too - hell, you’re all invited! Come early. Stay late. It’s gonna be great!
The day starts early with the Brewery Bike Tour Ride sponsored by New Belgium Brewery for the benefit of Bike Houston. We’ll meet up in the parking lot at 7:30 for an 8:00 start that will take us through town past Karbach, Buffalo Bayou & Saint Arnold’s breweries. There will be 2 routes - approximately 15 miles and 25 miles - with stops along the way at the breweries for some R&R. SAG support is available for those experiencing mechanical problems or a bit too much R&R. Anticipated return time to Rudz is around 10:00 where munchies will greet the returning cruise-aders! (That was terrible, I know)
A swap meet inside will be set up for mixing & mingling while munching. At noon, side games in the parking lot will commence. New Belgium Fat Tire pints and raffle tickets for jerseys will be sold & the proceeds will to be donated to Bike Houston. Fun & games will wind down around 2:00 to make room for non-cycling revelers to start appearing for the afternoon’s festivities.
Starting at 4:00 y’all get a raffle ticket with every drink ordered for the schwag give away that starts at 6:00. But you don’t have to wait until 6:00 to score, for those that have missed the opportunity to partake of this year’s Saint Arnold’s Divine Reserve 12 or just want more of that yummy brew, we are tapping our keg at 4:00.
Drinking, eating and the chance to haul home some righteous schwag - who could ask for more, right? But there is! Doors open at 8:00 for the free show starting at 9:00 upstairs. Grizzly hits the stage running, Dead Roses swings the middle and Ghost Town Electric rocks the top spot! Now, that’s turning 34 in style!
