What is Intergalactic Surly Day?

Surly is turning 21 this year they decided that they may as well throw a party to bring together the bike community from the farthest reaches of the galaxies to celebrate bikes, friends, and good times in a non-competitive, welcome-to-all atmosphere.

In order to make sure as many fellow humanoids as possible can get in on the fun, they've invited Surly partner shops from far and wide to host simultaneous events in their areas.

They're doing it because we believe time spent on bikes makes people more self-reliant, carefree and happy, and what's better than that? Well-behaved animals, extraterrestrial life forms, and humanoids of all ages and flavors are welcome at Intergalactic Surly Day. Hell, you don't even need to own a Surly to join in on the fun.

Want to join us?

“Bicycles of every conceivable form.  A shenanigan or two with your mates new and old.  A shreducational tour of Edmonton’s obscure, thought provoking, and lesser know history of oddity.  Do we have your attention?  

In honour of Intergalactic Surly Day, the 21st of September please join us at Redbike after store hours for an evening glimpse into the weird and quite possibly unnerving side of some of Edmonton’s history, buildings, and locales.  Once you’ve had your fill of dark tourism the ride will conclude at one of the city’s fine watering holes.  

*Surly bicycle not required, all are welcome”
