This past weekend offered up some fantastic weather. I love the fall. Saturday morning I joined the “Ride For Miles”. It was a memorial ride for a Biology professor from John Carroll University who had been struck and killed by a car during a ride last month. The ride had 500 people take part and the route followed my normal 24 mile loop.
Following the ride, lots of food was served and everyone was treated to music compliments of my a group called Roots of American Music. The group is led by an old friend of mine named Kevin Richards. As soon as he discovered me, he drafted me to perform a few tunes. Bike shorts, cleats, and an old Guild guitar seemed perfect for the Trifolk look, but alas, I had no camera.
Sunday was the Cleveland Triathlon Club picnic. I rode down with Jack and somehow managed to avoid politics. he has started a rumor that I have seen the light regarding the GOP ticket since our ride home from Louisville. What he didn't mention was how out of whack my electrolytes were following 15 hrs in 97 degree heat. Once I regained consciousness, I remembered how screwed up the current GOP administration has left us, and that only recently has the GOP hopefuls tried distance them selves from GWB.
The picnic was a good time and the weather was perfect.
