Great weather and a good turn out for the annual Halloween ride. A lot of neat and creative costumes and bikes. There was also live music performed by the Phantom of the Opera and a dance performance by the lovely Marcia Brady. Photos from the evening here. Thanks to the Joker for some of the photos.
"The Midtown bike path will run more than one mile, from the intersection of Central and Wichita Streets, north along Wichita Street to 9th Street, and then northeast in the former Union Pacific Railroad Corridor to 15th near Broadway. The $1.35 million project will provide a 10-foot wide bicycle path with decorative entrance arches at both 8th and 15th Streets, and a plaza with clock tower and drinking fountain in Otis Park at 13th and Market. More than 300 trees and shrubs will be planted along the path. Minor storm sewer work will also occur at various points along the path."
This was the 2nd year for this event but the first time attending for the Coasters. We started off by riding in the parade which went up and back down the dirt Main street. After the parade we displayed the bikes, watched the local entertainment, ate and some of us took a historic bus tour of Partridge. Lora, Steve and myself even brought home trophies for our bikes. As always we had a great time! Thanks Jay for inviting us.
This evening I spotted 2 of the give-away bikes being ridden down the sidewalk. I knew they were the bikes because one w
as the boys and the other the girls and the girls still had streamers. Nice to know they are getting use.
I'm sure that's fine. They'll also need help loading bikes into trucks. I had forgot to post that they are also assembli
ng bikes on Sunday beginning at 1:00pm. I just updated the post.
