Yesterday was Bike the C-bus, a very chill ride through several Columbus communities, including stops for water and sometimes snacks and to check out what the neighborhoods have to offer. There were also food trucks/carts upon our return.And a raffle, in which I won a 1-year membership to Franklin Park Conservatory. 
ANYWAYS
Hal & Al’s hosted the after party (which I had to skip due to a gig) AND they had this amazing water keg bike. This dude rode the entire route (~30 miles) refilling everyone’s water bottles and sometimes providing spays of water directly on to you.

A Giant Master Post of Columbus Bike Stuff

I love both Columbus & Bikes & therefore biking in Columbus. I thought I’d make a kind of meta post of bike-related stuff in Columbus for anyone’s reference (including my own). This is just what I know about, so please feel free to send me stuff to add to the list.
