"Winter has finally released its death-grip on Chicago. In the spirit of spring Schubas will celebrate Chicago’s greenest form of transportation: bicycles. Local shops will be on-hand to perform tune-ups, demos and workshops in Schubas’ music room. Our parking lot will host a performance by the all-girl BMX group The Racketeers as well as DJ sets ...by E-SIX & ROAN (Crossfader King). We will also host a bike drive to collect donated bikes and parts for Working Bikes Cooperative. For those attending Chicago’s Naked Bike Ride later in the evening, there will be food specials and $2 Schlitz beer for peak physical performance. We will be raffling off bike gear and Schubas gift certificates throughout the afternoon; tickets can be purchased at the door for $2."
