CHANGE OF PLANS --- MEET AT VESELKA, 8:15pm - Special discount menu! Read on...

We're expanding the international flavor of #BromptonNYC to include the East Village Ukrainian staple Veselka (which means "Rainbow" by the way)!!

Tom, Veselka's owner and a Brompton rider, is generously offering a discounted menu to #BromptonNYC and so we'll have extra reason to enjoy their legendary food and service! This is the first big event of the #BromptonNYC season and truly opens the summer riding season. We'll discuss upcoming events, meet and greet friends old and new, and party it up Brompton style on the bike lanes and at one of NYC's culinary gems!

Here's a schedule for the day:

CHANGE OF PLANS --- MEET AT VESELKA, 8:15pm

8:30PM - Pierogi folding demo

Tom Birchard, Veselka's owner and a Brompton rider himself is treating us to an exclusive "How to fold a Pierogi" lesson from Veselka's master makers. We'll all leave with the skills to craft our very own Brompt-rogi! The only question is - what should we fill them with???

UPDATE: After the Pierogi demo we'll head out on a moderately paced, no drop, ride. The route will be a bit fluid and we'll adjust to rider pace and unplanned stops. Here's the general idea... We'll head north and loop once through Central Park, head over the 59th St Bridge to Queens, ride south and stop for a break at the Brompton Cafe in Williamsburg, cruise down to Dumbo, cross the Manhattan bridge, take a look at the Statue of Liberty from Battery park, ride up through Chinatown, and finally....

11:15 - We arrive at Veselka, meet anyone who couldn't make the group ride, fold up, take our seats outside along 2nd ave and get settled. UPDATE: Veselka is generously offering a FREE cup of Borscht to us Brompton riders PLUS a discounted order of 8 Pierogi for $5 (usually $12). So - we'll have extra reason to enjoy their legendary food and service!

At Midnight we'll feast on Borscht, Pierogi, fine Ukrainian beers, and more!

Join us for a fun ride and a good old time!

Special thanks to Veselka for all they've done to make this night a reality!
