Grab your bike, grab a beer, and ride for a royal flush.
Pedal the Pinellas Trail with your neighbors for a beach-town twist on a classic Oktoberfest — the Crystal Beach Community Association's first (annual?) Oktoberfest Poker Run. Roll from stop to stop along the trail, draw a card at each checkpoint, and see who rides away with the best hand in town. Costumes, cold beer, and community spirit encouraged.
How it works: Register, pick up your scorecard, and ride the marked route along the Pinellas Trail. At each of the [number] checkpoints, draw one playing card. Best five-card poker hand at the finish wins [prize]. No poker face required — just a bike and a sense of fun.
