Today's Ride

As part of the day-long induction celebration I took part in the "Legends Ride," which was actually four rides of varying distance. My ride included HoF inductees Wende Cragg (on her Series III Breezer), Marilyn Price and Denise Caramagno, also RB contributor Geoff Halaburt on his Cunningham.

The induction dinner/ceremony brought out all the local gliterati, Joe Breeze, Jacquie Phelan, Steve Potts, Charlie Cunningham, Tom Ritchey and Ross Shafer among them. Zap Espinoza, Ned Overend and Craig Cook showed up from far away, to see Missy "The Missile" Giove inducted.
