Offering Pedal-Powered Milkshakes & a New “Après Bike” Happy Hour Menu
Special menu items will be available starting Thursday, July 20
Mountain Burger, whose mission is to accelerate the world’s transition to sustainable dining, will be celebrating International Mountain Biking Day (known as Ride MTB Day) on Thursday, July 20, with pedal-powered milkshakes and the launch of a new Après Bike Happy Hour menu.
With sustainability at the heart of Mountain Burger’s mission, the restaurant has teamed up with OSU Cascades’ Extension Service to enable guests to create their own pedal-powered milkshakes. Guests will be able to ride a stationary bike that generates the power necessary to blend their own milkshake. OSU Extension Service Nutrition Education Program works with local organizations that serve the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) eligible population in Deschutes County, to promote eating fruits and vegetables along with physical activity.
Mountain Burger’s new “Après Bike” menu, which will be available through Labor Day weekend, will include:
Mountain Fries ($8): Maple Bacon Sweet Potato, Whoops!, Okonoko, Kennebec
Signature Salads ($10): Red Chair Quinoa Kale, Ed’s Chopped Garden, Cool Like Summer
Mix & Match Sliders (two for $10): Mini Mountain Burger, Mini Crunchy Cauliflower
Snacks ($9-12): Chicken Digits, Crispy Onion Rings, Fried Cauliflower
Drink Specials (price varies): Brews, Vino, Cocktails, and Milkshakes
“Bend is a mountain biking mecca and with the Phil’s Trail system so close to the restaurant, we wanted to do something special for the mountain biking community,” said Chef Justin Goin. “We’re excited to be celebrating Ride MTB Day by launching this fun Après Bike menu. Riders can ride right off the trail to Mountain Burger to enjoy a burger and a cold beer.”
Pedal-powered milkshakes will be available Thursday, July 20 through Saturday, July 22.
