SUMMARY:Midwesterners Ride (and Tavern Hang)
CONTACT:Meg Horst
DESCRIPTION:It’s today! 8/13!\nJoin us for the almost 4th annual 
 Midwesterners Ride (I missed hosting last year).\n\nCalling all Midwest 
 transplants to Portland. You count even if you lived in Chicago for only 3
  months when you were 21\, or if you were born in South Dakota but moved 
 before you could walk. Heck\, youbetcha count if you're just Midwest 
 curious!\n\nLike last time\, bring your best potluck contribution (hot 
 dish\, beer brats\, scotcheroos\, New Glarus\, Cincinnatti chili\, etc) 
 and wear something that shows your Midwest pride.  We'll eat\, ride 
 (follow the cheeshead!) and stop halfway for some short card games (20 
 minutes or so). Bring a deck and show off your best euchre\, gin rummy\, 
 or whatever card game your aunt and uncle played while drinking old 
 fashioned’s. (It's okay if you don't know games- a friendly midwesterner 
 will teach you!)\n\nWe'll end at the Midwest inspired Jerry’s Tavern 
 (optional) for ongoing hanging. \n\nWe might argue about the exact 
 boundaries of the Midwest\, whether it is "soda" or "pop\," and which 
 state is best (obviously Wisconsin) but what we agree on:  It's not the 
 heat\, it's the humidity.\n\nI heard some people made best friends on this
  ride in past years and I hope it happens again!\n\nI better not keep ya.
   See ya soon\, ope!\nMeet for potluck at 6pm\, Ride at 6:45pm\nEnds at 
 Jerry's Tavern\, a Midwest inspired 
 bar\nhttps://shift2bikes.org/calendar/event-24697
LOCATION:Irving Park\n7th and Fremont Ave NE\nMeet by the bathrooms
