What a great ride! Started with John’s outstanding birthday party and convening at The Swamp for The Ride the count came to 32 people.
Beginning at The Swamp
The turn-out was pretty impressive, probably as many as for The Prom
Once we got on the way we rode through Browne’s Addition, down Riverside to Peoples Park across the river, up the hill, through Felony Flats ending up at the Maxwell House tavern at Maxwell and Maple. Click the picture below to see even more pictures.

The staff of the Maxwell House were outstanding! From what I understand they weren’t even expecting us and when 30+ bicyclists arrived they had us bring out bikes through the tavern and put them in the banquet room. What a great experience! I can just imagine sitting there drinking a beer when this parade of bicycles comes through. I’d probably wonder what was slipped in my drink.
After being there a bit Jeff opened the mysterious box that was on his bike and passed out. Oops, I meant he passed out some cupcakes celebrating the one-year birthday of the Full Moon Fiasco rides.
Ahh, bicycles and beer, gotta love it.
Till later,
Jacque – Out
