Rollin’ on Bubs
In college, we had the drunk shuttle. Here in Jackson, after a few drinks at the Stagecoach, its a scary ride in one of the towns minivan-slash-cabs risking life and limb in the hands of a usually toothless and potentially drunker-than-you driver. In a perfect world, shouldn’t the beer and liquor companies pay to get us home? I mean, its their fault that we were overserved in the first place, they just make the beer taste sooo good. Well, New Belgium is giving that exact idea a shot. Check out the new taxi that is a little bit carnival ride, a little bit bicycle and a little bit like a gravy train with biscuit wheels.
This is the new New Belgium pedi cab, just one of a fleet run by Tara and Talbott Walker of LOCAL SPOKES, the newest transportation company in Aspen. The rides are free and riders just pay what they can into a tip jar. Last week’s famous Food and Wine Festival brought in over $400 in tips. Local Spokes is about to drop in on Boulder as well with an even more pimped out (believe it or not) New Belgium cruiser, so keep an eye out Boulderites!
If you’re in Aspen this weekend for the annual Jazz Aspen festival, and you have a few too many drinks after the Lynyrd Skynyrd show, or just want to check out the Aspen scene, program the below number into your phone and keep an eye out for the NBB pedicab, I’m guessing it’s pretty hard to miss.
