No can do for me, due to time (and don't drink beer, for that matter).
Is this single-speed fixed gear, or just single speed, or both?
Anyway, if you're not aware of this group, you might check in with them, and see if they have some contacts back this way:

If this is single-speed, and not fixed gear, you might want to check on this site. Look through some of the galleries first to see what kind of bicycles they're riding.

Under the "events", there is one post that says:
"We meet around 6 p.m. at the Uptown Pub (corner of Lemmon and McKinney) NO SPANDEX!! We are going to ride out to Lee Harveys, they serve food and beer (Lone Star in a can!!) and other brands. Safe area to park bikes. Lights are needed but if you want to wear a helmet o.k. We will be on all kinds of bikes = single speed, mtn , cruiser, BMX etc. This is just a leisure ride and just to meet others and have a beer and fun time. Any questions my email is singlespeed74@gmail.com Hope to see you there LATE jake"
I don't know this person, and haven't been on the ride, but just relay it for information. I find the same ride referred to at this site:
