Burritos and Bikes

This Wednesday, Ride on Washington, an invitation bike ride that aims to raise $100,000 for peopleforbikes.org, began its East Coast journey. The ride starts in Boston, travels along the East Coast, and finishes in Washington DC. The Ride on Washington crew came together for a Pre-Ride Celebration (complete with burritos and beer) at another Boston favorite, The Harpoon Brewery on Tuesday evening, kicked off the ride from City Hall Plaza on Wednesday morning (after fueling up on breakfast burritos, of course), and on Sunday, will ‘wrap up’ (pun intended) at Boloco 19^th Street in DC.

            Boloco is no stranger to the cycling world, having sponsored other cycling events in the past including the Mayor’s Cup (Boston), Hub on Wheels (Boston), and the Prouty (Hanover, NH) with burritos and “Team Boloco,” a group of Boloco guests and employees who love racing for a cause. When the team heard about Ride on Washington, they jumped at the chance to participate on both ends of the ride. Boloco provided globally inspired burritos at both pre-ride events in Boston and will host the riders for a post-ride celebration. Not only is the Boloco team psyched to help out on both ends of the race, but they are currently out on the road with the Ride on Washington crew, providing one of the support vehicles for the event via the classic Boloco Airstream.

            Jenn Blazejewski, VP of Marketing for Boloco, fearless driver and lover of cycling and adventure, hit the road with the Ride on Washington crew and is documenting the ride’s East Coast journey. After five days of biking, these cyclists are looking forward to the closing ceremonies… and Boloco is equally excited to introduce Washington D.C. to the classic Airstream.
