Friends -Some photos attached...details.22 riders (9 girls) at Mountainview ES repping 1st-5th grade7 at South MS - all boys, boo - but a few are "grads" from our Mountainview #FRideDays of years past! What a glorious day...the smiles were broad and joyful...the freedom of two wheels!"Yea us, we don't need no stinkin' bus!" Many thanks to Kara for South organization, Principal Dickerson at Mountainview, Morgantown PD with a rider & cruiser to help the Mountainview crew, our sag wag for all the Mountainview backpacks, donations from Pathfinder and Wamsley's, and the Bike Board/City for buying the banners and the PR. We're meeting at Mountainview at 3:30 to chaperone them home, if interested in riding along.We'll be gathering at 4:00 at Jack Roberts Park to hand out some shwag and celebrate if anyone wants to join that as well. It takes a village.Christiaan
"When the spirits are low, when the day appears dark, when work becomes monotonous, when hope hardly seems worth having, just mount a bicycle and go out for a spin down the road, without thought on anything but the ride you are taking.” -Sir Arthur Conan Doyle
Well done all!
