Just a reminder folks, the ride is tomorrow morning!  Smiley

Hope to see a big turnout at Queen City Bicycles for our "Ride to the Mayor's Ride!"

We'll meet 7:00 a.m., gather up, and roll out about 7:10 to make it on time.  It looks like we may have a special escort to the ride as well, so you don't want to miss that.    

I hope to see everyone there!

What a good time and a great showing by the Trailblazers!  Thanks to Bart at Queen City Bicycles for opening his shop for us and to Chris Muddiman for leading us to the Dowd Y for the start of the Mayor's Ride.

A great turnout, I would estimate 250 or so riders, including Brian Malec's son Patrick, without a doubt the youngest pedaler out there at barely 4 years!  Train up a child!

As usual, Neal Boyd put on a great event, thanks to Ruth's Cris for breakfast and Chic-fil-a for the coffee and fruit...

Next year we need 1,000 cyclists to make the event!

When I was a kid, I prayed for a bicycle.  When I learned it didn't work that way, I stole one and asked God to forgive me...

it was a good turn out.  I had a camera rolling, but somewhere in the ride the vid got stopped.  That is what i get for trying to spy camera it.  So i hope some of you others got a good vid/pics.  Great to see all the blazers and other riders too that showed.  I thought it was awesome as we rolled in to the lot at the dowd Y about 20 deep that someone there said "Here come all the mountain bikers, and wow they came in force".

I know, it took me long enough.   Cheesy

Big thanks to everyone that came out.  We had a huge crowd riding from Queen City Bicycles.  Thanks to Bart for allowing us to meet there (and for the coffee), and also for the CMPD officers that lead the way.  I can't wait for next year.

Here is a slide show from the photos I took out there:

I hate we missed it this year.  I had every intention of me and the little guy going (and trying to talk dodo into it, too), but realized I had already signed up to volunteer  with the special olympics through work.  Two good causes on the same day -- tough decision.

Hope to be there again next year with another little one in tow.
