Thursday night bicycle ride to benefit Riverboat Gambler

Since its launch in March, the Thursday Night Social Ride — a weekly casual bicycle ride in central Austin that generally finishes at an area bar — has grown into a force to be reckoned with. This week the ride’s organizers are mobilizing the event’s hundreds of cyclists to help out an Austin musician in need: the Riverboat Gamblers’ Ian MacDougall.

MacDougall, you may remember, was severely injured after being struck by a car while riding his bike home Oct. 17. The Thursday Night Social Ride will meet at 7 p.m. at the Scoot Inn, 1308 E. Fourth St., before making its way to the Sustainable Waves compound, 4704 Caesar Chavez St. Cash donations will be collected for MacDougall, and R&B dub band the Finest Kind will perform. Ride organizers will also be collecting cans for the Capital Area Food Bank at the kickoff. More details are available on the event’s Facebook page.
