This year for the Bike-In we decided to do something special. We’re commissioning a new live score from the folks who’ve brought you movie night at Bauhaus Coffee. Jon Francois, Marcy Stone and Tomm Johnson will compose an original soundtrack with vinyl records to the 1986 classic bicycle movie Quicksilver! Jack Casey, a successful young floor trader played by Kevin Bacon, loses all of his money after a risky business decision. Deflated and disenchanted with his profession, he decides to become a bicycle messenger.

As always, the Bike-In will feature live music curated by the Vera Project, and booths from local bicycle organizations and merchants. Come early stay late for this amazing outdoor bicycling extravaganza!
