— This weekend, try a new workshop or attend a new event. For those who started early on “No-shave November,” this weekend’s Mustache Ride is just for you. Whether you’re looking for music or dancing, this weekend has something for everyone.

Ninth Annual Steamboat Springs Mustache Ride

The Mustache Ride is this Saturday. Let’s beat the $12,000 we raised last year for the Routt County Humane Society and maybe have more than a good time too. Party starts at McKnight’s Irish Pub & Loft at 3 p.m. The brash and bold can meet at 2 p.m. at the top of Laurel Lane for the Ninth Annual Mustache Rally Race. The cost to play is a $10 donation, and $30 gets you a “Stache Card” and a drink at every stop. Sign up and donate early at ssmustacheride.com. Locations include McKnight’s Irish Pub & Loft, Old Town Pub, Carl’s Tavern, Schmiggity’s and Sunpies Bistro. Drink responsibly.
