Pedal for Puppies follows dog head-shaped route

doghead.JPG

Put this one down in the annals of puppy-loving wackiness: An urban fund-raising bicycle ride that follows a route shaped roughly like a puppy’s head.

Yes, it’s true. Pedal for Puppies, a benefit for Austin Pets Alive!, will host the 25K ride starting at 8 a.m. Saturday, Oct. 29, from Austin Subaru, 200 W. Huntland Drive.

The ride weaves its dog-headed way through the city, stopping for support (and hopefully more than kibble and biscuits) at Jack & Adams bike shop before finishing back at the car dealership.

Food and entertainment, along with a bounce house, face painter and music, are planned. Pet adoptions will be available from 8-11 a.m., with a silent auction at 10 a.m.

Registration is $40 here.

Packet pickup is 11 a.m. - 2 p.m. Wednesday at Austin Pets Alive!, 2807 Manchaca Road; 11 a.m. - 2 p.m. Thursday at Jack and Adams,
1210 Barton Springs Road; and 10 a.m.-6 p.m. Friday at Austin Subaru.
