What if my only black pants are made by Pearl Izumi?

Evelyn Egizi, team director at Artemis (my team), sent out an announcement of an actual event that cyclists should find delightful, even though they're strongly discouraged from bringing a bicycle with them. It's:

The Bike Ball - A Winter Cycling Formal

The event is sponsored by Proteus Bikes and Coppi's Organic Restaurant (two Artemis sponsors as well), and is designed to raise funds to offset the production costs of "The New Woman: Annie Londonderry Kopchovksy," a documentary film about a pioneering Jewish immigrant who, in 1895, became the first woman to cycle around the world.
