10/13/12 Black Bear Century
|
|
We were riding in an organized bike ride today
called the Black Bear Century.
There were various routes – we were aspiring to
do the 66 mile ride today.
Yes, it is not uncommon to see BEAR!!

on the road at 6 a.m.
One light is the moon ( the bottom one)
the other is a Star!

We met Judith & Michael W. there —
Judith using the Changing Tent to get into
her bike gear.

Jim got a flat tire on the descent of a pretty steep hill
|
|
|
|
|
well, it was more a BLOW OUT than a FLAT
|
|
|
|
We had to cut our ride short due to Mechanical Issues.
We only rode 40 miles instead of 66.

|
well, I truly believe every adversity has a benefit.
Since we only did 40 miles we were able to make
the last tour at Weyerbacher Brewery.

Double fisted for the Brewery Tour.

That’s a Tattoo Parlor next to the Day Care.
They don’t have to go far for a field trip.

We went to Pearly Bakers for a late lunch.
Judith & Michael W met up with us.
We drank & ate, repeat.

Weasel & Chester were happy to have us home 🙂
