Beers, Bikes And BBQ… Spin Up In A Brewery Returns For 2018

Events

by 0

After taking a short break since the last event in 2015, “Spin Up in a Brewery” is back by popular demand!

Established in 2012, it is again a collaboration between two West Sussex based companies, the craft brewery Dark Star and bicycle brand Kinesis UK. Spin Up in a Brewery brings together Bikes, Beer and BBQ for a day of fun at the Dark Star.

Bikes and beers. Hurrah!

Everyone is invited to either just come along and soak-up the fun with like-minded people or for those that want to take part to win great prizes they can compete in static bike racing knock-out rounds throughout the day with grand final winners crowned at the end of the afternoon. To get a feel for the day check out the 2015 event video.

There will be at least three “ride-outs” for those wishing to join a suggested cycling route to the Dark Star Brewery in Partridge Green. The Mountain Bike / Gravel Bike route will start outside Brighton’s Stanmer Park Tearooms, the Road Ride route will start from outside Rule Five Bikes at Five Ways in Brighton and the Family/E-bike route will start outside the Giant Store in Shoreham.

No need to bend over backwards to have fun.

I came to Singletrack having decided there must be more to life than meetings. I like all bikes, but especially unusual ones. More than bikes, I like what bikes do. I think that they link people and places; that cycling creates a connection between us and our environment; bikes create communities; deliver freedom; bring joy; and improve fitness. They're environmentally friendly and create friendly environments. I try to write about all these things in the hope that others might discover the joy of bikes too.
