1000 Animals Social Athletic CLub Group Ride

1000 Animals was a hoot and a half – THANK YOU to all the folks who came out for making it such a fun time!  We hope you got a good ride in and enjoyed the BBQ dinner at West Shore afterwards.  Shoutout to Placid Planet for being such a great partner and letting us start the ride in their parking lot.  They started this ride so many years ago, after all.

The 1000 Animals Social Athletic Club was a local, casual crew of cyclists who met weekly to ride together in the 90’s. The rides were organized by Placid Planet, which, at one time, was located at 1975 Saranac Ave. This same location has taken on many identities over the years - the “Speedy Spa”, an antique shop, and “The Home of 1000 Animals” - an oddball roadside attraction that was part petting zoo and part fur farm from the 1920’s through the 60’s. It is now the home of West Shore BBQ, where we ended our ride for BBQ dinner. 

Again, thanks so much for coming out for 1000 Animals.  It's clear that we can all get into this kind of event and we look forward to putting it on again in the future.  In the meantime, please join us at another event (or three), and start scheming about your next 1000 Animals costume – the more elaborate, the better.
