Bike Hugger is bringing the party back to SXSW with 43% more bike culture. The Mobile Social is an intersection of bikes, technology, and culture. We ride, blog, party, and give away product.
This event is for the BBQ. The Urban Ride event is here

Update: The DJs of the Sun, aka Sycons, are bringing their art, solar energy, and music to the Urban Ride ride and BBQ. Digital, analog, mobile, and powered by solar packs. They’ll mix music while we ride around Austin and party at the BBQ.

Hmmm....now to figure how I can get my Xtracycle to Austin!
If Scoble's gonna eat, he should ride first, eh?
Yes. Scoble should ride.

So in. For all of it.
My wife RSVP'd on upcoming for the BBQ..but not the ride. No wristband, will she be able to come in (I'm hoping!)?
Thanks
Backamp,
See my comment above with a link to the event lowdown. The BBQ attendance requires a SXSW badge or an Urban Ride RSVP.
All,
If it rains, as it sometimes does in Austin, we'll gather and find the nearest coffee shop or bar. Granted, Austin cyclists don't ride in the rain like we do here in Seattle, but we'll still show. Also, the BBQ is in a giant tent, protected from the elements.
Win a Madsen, Gary Fisher Simple City, xTracycle FreeRadical and more. Linkage

All,
We're on rain or shine. The gigantic tent can hold us all, protected from whatever Austin weather throws at us.
