Party Bikes (also known as Booze or Beer Bikes) are an iconic tourist staple in Belfast. We are *this* close to sailing, so I thought it would be a good time to organize a Bye Bye Belfast Booze Bike Party for my fellow shipmates. We rented 3 bikes from Belfast Party Bikes, and some 50+ of us pedaled our way through the city center, partying, singing, drinking, and waving good-bye to the Belfastians who have come to know us as The Ship People.
It was a spectacular farewell moment, and a fitting way to say good-bye to our adopted city.
I was up late last night, hand-lettering signs. “The Ship People Are Finally Leaving!” was my favorite!
The news media was on hand to cover the event. Here are a couple links:
