Free and inclusive community bike rides and social outings
In 2023, Slow Roll Buffalo is going to be a lot more than simply cycling together in winter weather. The cycling series is expanding its horizons even further, to include a book club and snowshoeing.
Slow Roll Buffalo’s official kick-off event on Saturday, January 7 will take place at Mister Sizzle’s at 346 Connecticut Street. This will be the prefect chance to meet up with friends, learn about Snow Roll activities, grab some food and drink, and bike together in a wintery stampede.
On that day, the local grassroots organization “Agents for Advocacy” will be setting up. Agents for Advocacy was founded by Mark Talley, whose mother Geraldine was killed in the May 14th white-supremacist terrorist attack. The organization has created a mobile pantry of essential needs, which travels around the city collecting winter clothing, socks and underwear, baby and feminine supplies, and monetary donations for those who are less fortunate.
“To increase awareness for socioeconomic equity and equality in impoverish areas.” – Agents for Advocacy
