January 18th – The Tetris Brain Teaser

How’s this for a cliche New Year’s resolution: “Get in shapes, get BikeInShapes!”

We’ll kick this year off this Wednesday, 7:45 at the Cornucopia (17th & Lincoln) borrowing from the most basic shapes of ’em all: Tetris shapes.

This ride comes with a mission should you accept. I have mashed together all of the Tetris shapes (as seen in image).  Now, your brain teaser task is to draw a route that:
– Starts and finishes at the Cornucopia (17th & Lincoln)
– Traces around each Tetris shape once, without overlapping traces or gaps.

It may be impossible! So, the first person to send me a perfectly traced map wins a BikeInShapes T-Shirt. Feel free to bring your solution to the ride.

October 26th – Shadow the Red Ghost

Fall has come, and it’s time to see who the true rain or shine bikeinshapers are. Let’s joystick around the most ubiquitously dangerous villain of arcade history to kick off Halloween week. We’ll meet outside the Jackalope Lounge (on Willamette St. adjacent to the Amtrak station) at 7pm. Micros are $2.50 on Tuesdays.

September 9th – Alfalfa

Who’s got big ears, a crackly little voice and a spiked hairdo? This Thursday, it’s time to trace the face of The Little Rascals’ Alfalfa. We’ll meet outside of the Ninkasi Brewing Company’s tasting room in the Whitaker at 7pm. Also, we’re hoppy to announce Ninkasi is offering our group discounts on pints. Thanks Ninkasi!
