Repost from the Bike Hugger page:

Urban Ride
Meet at the Susanna Dickinson House — map — North end of Brush Square Park, at the corner of 5th and Trinity Street.
Saturday, March 8
1:00 pm - 4:00 pm
After meeting, we’ll ride to the REI Austin Store (get some schwag!), then to the Jack S. Blanton Museum of Art for a tour, and back to the park.
All ride attendees are put on the BBQ guest list. Join the Urban Ride on Upcoming. Note that the ride is limited to 20 cyclists.
---------------------------
UPDATE:
Due to popular demand they've opened the ride up to as many people as want to show up, but the tour and the BBQ/beer is limited to people who ACTUALLY SIGN UP: http://upcoming.yahoo.com/event/426504/
DOO EET!!! There's already 90 people signed up, with more to come I'm sure. I'm gonna try to haul the stereo if I can so this should be fun.
Apparently, there's some sort of SXSW policy on allowing non-badgeholders into SXSW events. That's the reason for the 20-rider limit on "invited" guests. (BTW: All you gotta do is invite yourself using the y-invite link NOTE: they've got separate lits for the ride and the beer & barbecue this isn't the same link as the one we posted earlier -- I'm now on both) UPDATE: Byron now says SXSW will allow more than 20 attend the post-ride barbecue and brew -- just get your ass on the invite list so they know how many to expect.

I'm down....but I didn't see where to sign up to be one of the 20 cyclists.

Bob's on there, so am I. I talked to Bob on Myspace and we're of the opinion that we should show these guys an Austin bike welcome and crash the ride with a hundred bikers or so. What are they gonna say, no? Welcome to our town, y'all.
