Alleycat Acres birthday party to help kickstart spring bike ride

Alleycat Acres is both launching a new farm at MLK and Cherry in the Central District and launching a new bike team as the urban farming collective heads into their third year of transforming urban space. To celebrate both, they are throwing a birthday bash at LTD Art Gallery (Pike and Bellevue on Capitol Hill) Thursday starting at 6 p.m.

The organization’s second annual Streets and Beets fundraising ride is March 3 (Seattle Bike Blog is a supporting partner). You can register for the ride today for $25. Each rider pledges to raise $100 by the day of the ride to go toward Alleycat’s ambitious $25,000 goal.

The 70-mile ride will start at the MLK FAME Community Center in Madison Valley and end at the United People’s Farm in Auburn.
