Well, we've had Chocolate, Burrito, Taco, and Pizza Rides. Bike-In Movies have been huge successes. We also have Pedal Potluck Picnics where everyone brings potluck food and the ride route is a mystery. Then at a certain point, we stop for dinner. There have been Bike to Skate rides, Bike to Dance Party rides. ****s on Bikes (and their friends) rides, B is For Bicycle rides, and on and on. The Shift site has all the past Pedalpalooza rides plus descriptions.
Check it out. There's something about keeping the ride route a "secret" that gets people enthusiastic. Music is good, too.
