Summer seems to have finally arrived for good and there’s a lot going on this weekend. Use this post to share your bike fun, plans, and adventures with the rest of us.

Many of you are yet to wake up after last night’s Midnight Mystery Ride, but once you do, consider rolling over to the Mississippi Ave Street Fair which happens today (Saturday) from 10am – 9pm. The Night Ride is also happening tonight. It’s an illuminated party on wheels that’s expected to attract about 2,000 people. They’ll be taking over the streets starting at 9pm.

Tomorrow, there’s a ride for Star Trek lovers and a Sunset Mystery Ride that’s sure to please. Out on the track at Alpenrose, this weekend is the OBRA Track Championships. Grab a sun hat and enjoy some track racing action.

If you’re inside and feel like catching up on stories from the past week, that’d be fine too. There are lots of interesting discussions still going on (see the Hot Topics in the sidebar).

Whatever you end up doing in this fantastic weather, I hope you have a great weekend and I’ll see you back here on Monday.
