beer really is free, just make sure you have an ID as New Belgium will be there checking up on us.
The $5 entry fee is basically your ticket for free beers.

The tickets to Toronto can only be won by messengers. City bikers get cool stuff. Maybe not as cool as going to Toronto, but it is meant to send the fastest messengers from the US to Cycle Messenger World Championships.

unfortunately, we weren't able to find a free space for the party, and we are already several hundred dollars in the hole on this event. $5 is the only thing we are charging the entire weekend as far as entry goes, and it's pretty minimal. if you don't drink beer, don't worry, we don't have a sponsor, but we are bringing other drinks as well.

Heliotrope closed to cars from 2-8 on Sunday is AMAZING. It's worth coming out just to take that in.
