| Great Western Bike Rally - 2008 |
| Each year, for the last ten years, we have spent Memorial Day weekend in Paso Robles camped in the fairgrounds. It is a great weekend of riding bikes and meeting new people. We have watched children grow up and groups expand to over 40 people. There aren't many pictures because mostly we spend our days rinding. This year we rode 110 miles and climbed 4100 feet. We did take some pictures and they are presented here. |
| A panorama picture of the group that camps behind us each year. Their group has grown to 12 families. Here they are getting organized for the Saturday ride. Every one rides even the babies who sit in baby seats(see the last bike in the line). The kids did great, we saw them on Sunday returning form the train display at Silvester Winery, they were going up one of the steepest hills on the whole ride and doing great! |
| This couple and the children are planning to ride across Ohio in July. The bike on top of the car is a four person tandem. If you look closely you will se that the second seat has a second set of gears up high. That is for the very small boy. He really works on that bike. We wish them luck and hope they will send pictures. |
| And then to the mundane pictures of us on various rides. |
