A Ride of Epic Proportion



Yesterday's 16 miler set the bar for fun winter outdoor activity. With temperatures in the high 60s, a dozen riders headed out to explore the wilds of Shelby Bottoms.
Lots of folks were out walking, running, blading and biking so the greenway was quite busy. Above are a couple of pics of some "trespassers" traversing the construction gate at the new ped/bike bridge. Progress looked great!

There were a couple of families atop the earthen bridge ramp when we rode by. All the kids up there went bezerk when they saw (and heard) our crew.




The legendary end of Riverside Drive incline claimed yet another victim.



Actually, Fred climbed it twice: on his fixie and a beach cruiser.
Matt also smoked it on his single speed/coaster brake.

After the hill climb challenge, we made our way to 3 Crow and group practiced the primal scream in a failed effort to cheer the Titans to victory.

Check back later in the week for details of upcoming rides. JVC
