Spoke and Food is a new event designed to let cyclists get their exercise, and a reward of a nice meal, coupled with a donation to charity. Ride your bike to a participating restaurant on Tuesday, June 29, and the restaurant will donate 15% to 20% of the profits to Lettuce Link, a program of Solid Ground.
The main goals of Spoke & Food this year are to motivate our community to use their bicycles as they dine out and to improve access to healthy food for all by supporting Lettuce Link, an innovative food and gardening program growing and giving since 1988. Lettuce Link creates access to fresh, nutritious and organic produce, seeds, and gardening information for families with lower incomes in Seattle.
Nearby participating restaurants include The Scarlet Tree in Ravenna/Green Lake and Fiddler’s Inn in Wedgwood, though more may be added later. Other participating restaurants include:
- Cantinetta Restaurant (Wallingford)
- Barking Dog Alehouse (Greenwood/Phinney)
- Naked City Brewery & Tap House (Greenwood/Phinney)
- Dad Watsons (Fremont)
- Montlake Alehouse (Montlake)
- Louisa’s Cafe & Bakery (Eastlake)
