Up early for a one-hour drive to Howard Park in Ione for Party Pardee, an annual bike ride organized by Bike Hikers.
The 65-mile group had a start time of 7:30. My group, riding the 26-mile route, left at 8:30.
Rest stop #1.
In the distance, Lake Camanche.
Rest stop #2. Except there wasn’t a second rest stop on the 26-mile route. Oops, I missed a turn. If I continued, I would end up riding 65 miles.
Nope. 31 miles – that was enough. I got a ride back to the start with the sag support guys. The other passenger in the back seat with me lost a cleat on one shoe, her ride was over also.
The after-ride meal.
I walked with my plate until I found … Becky! We haven’t seen each other in years. So fun to catch up.
A stroll through the vendors including Gina – Gadget Girl Goods.
Hillary and Rob from SABA promoting May is Bike Month:
A live band.
Great event! Thank you Bike Hikers.
