Want to enjoy a Sunday afternoon, get some exercise, tour some new neighborhoods and help deserving young people learn a trade and earn a bike? You can do all of the above a few days from now.
On July 19, New Belgium Brewing, makers of Fat Tire Ale — along with its partners Gearin’ Up Bicycles and Phoenix Bikes — present the DC Sunshine Ride. It’s a unique opportunity to ride through NoMa and Brookland while benefiting some great causes. Riders will be treated to a tour, public art happenings, and pop-up food sellers showcasing what’s best in Northeast DC.
The ride kicks off with a 2 p.m. registration at Gearin’ Up Bicycles and ends at the Post-Cycle Soiree at Union Market, starting at 4. With your ticket, you’ll get one complimentary New Belgium Beer, but don’t stop there — be sure to try Suburbia’s fancy beer cocktails crafted with New Belgium’s Pear Ginger Beer and 1554 Black Lager. You can also shoot your own video at the Bicycle Pledge Booth, take home some New Belgium swag, and get discounts on eats and beer pairings from vendors inside Union Market.
The Post-Cycle Soiree is open to all, but you’ll want to register for the ride to get all the goodies, and PoPville readers receive 15% off ticket price by entering the promo code “PoPville2015.” Best of all, proceeds from ticket sales will directly support Gearin’ Up Bicycle’s Earn-A-Bike program that helps kids in underserved DC communities.
Bicycle-friendly New Belgium Brewing, makers of Fat Tire Amber Ale and a host of Belgian-inspired beers, has been named one of Outside Magazine’s “Best Places to Work,” as well as one of the Wall Street Journal’s “Best Small Businesses.”
New Belgium Brewing is also partnering with Phoenix Bikes on the NOVA Sunshine Ride, August 16th. Register for NOVA Sunshine Ride, here.

Potomac Harmony is Back! Following a gap year of competing, then virtual rehearsals during the pandemic, followed by the well-earned retirement of our long-term director, a year of a director search, Potomac Harmony hit the regional contest stage in Concord, North Carolina in March for the first time since 2018! It was exhilarating, reaffirming, and rewarding!
The chorus hit all of its goals, the biggest of which was to have fun and sing our best on contest stage — we did both! Because we earned a score over 400 points, our new Director, Allison Lynskey, was awarded the Novice Director award, photo above. Additionally, one of our charter members, Jackie Bottash, was nominated for and honored with the Leadership Excellence award. It was a celebratory weekend!
What’s next? So much! We now look forward to upcoming performances, growing our membership, and expanding our musical product with new arrangements and an education component each week. It’s an exciting time to be part of this ever-growing ensemble!
