What’s Going on This Week?
Later this week the 2012 North Atlantic Cycle Courier Championships in Richmond, Virginia. We try and keep this calendar local but this is a pretty big event that gets domestic and international attention. A lot of Boston messengers and residents will be taking the pilgrimage down south. It’s a four day festivity of fun starting on Thursday with a Red Bull and ends next Monday with a Memorial Day Barbeque and some Bike polo. Scroll down to see the entire schedule!
