Bicycles, Donuts, and You

We have Bike to Work Day. We have tweed rides. We have seersucker rides. There are group rides and pacelines and nice and easy rides and kidical masses and #brewvets and #coffeeneuring and rolling bike parties where everyone dresses up in Star Wars costumes. "Boba Fett? Where?" Boba Fett everywhere . There's even a weekly Cupcake Ramble, though I think it's not always cupcakes with which they ramble. There's also bike commutes and aimless, purposeless solo jaunts and long century rides capped with shower beers. But there's only DC Donut Crawl and it's coming up soon. Sign up, ride bikes, eat donuts, be charitable.

 

Join us on Saturday, June 7 (the day AFTER National Doughnut Day) as we bike through DC and enjoy some glazed goodness from a sprinkling of the District's finest doughnut shops. With each registration, participants will receive a free spoke card and a donut at each of the three participating shops. Sweet, custom-made DC Donut Crawl cycling caps are available for only $10 - make sure to grab yours!

THE CAUSE

We're proud to be partnering with a wonderful, local non-profit called Food For Life. Part of the proceeds from this year's crawl will go toward this organization as they continue to empower low-income young adults to change their lives through culinary education and training. Click here to learn more.

RIDE DETAILS

The 2nd annual DC Donut Crawl will kick off at 10am from Mount Vernon Square. Our friends at BicycleSPACE will host the start of the event and provide ride marshals and volunteers. Participants are asked to bring a helmet and a working bike. If you don't have your own bike, don't fritter! See the Sponsors section below.

Do-nut be late, as we'll be biking in groups to each doughnut shop. The first stop on the crawl will be Golden Brown Delicious (GBD). After that, we'll hop back on our bikes and head to Astro Doughnuts & Fried Chicken.

Our last stop will be District Doughnut, who will host us at the incredible shared kitchen space of Union Kitchen. We'll also have food, games, prizes and a bike blender! We should be done close to 1pm and will have biked a total of about 4.5 miles (burning off the equivalent of ONE donut). Click here for a map of the course.

OUR SPONSORS

BicycleSPACE will be providing prizes for contests and Capital Bikeshare has graciously provided 50 free 24-hour day passes to be used by people without bikes on the day of the event. If you don't have a bike, you can add this promo to your order on the next page.
