Best combination of bicycles, books and booze

Kerouac in Paradise

This past May, Tampa International Gay & Lesbian Film Festival Executive Director Margaret Murray led more than 100 literature (and liquor) lovers on a circuitous bike tour of the ’Burg, stopping off at a number of places near and dear to the late Beat writer and hipster icon. The marvelously educational trek benefited from great company, great weather and a great starting/ending location at local dive The Flamingo, one of Kerouac’s favorite haunts.
