A Great Day for Riding a Bicycle



This past Sunday, we held our annual Please BE KIND to Cyclists Ride. It was our fourth year of holding the event which is intended to promote bicycles on the road, safe riding, and to celebrate the bike.

It was a fantastic morning in Austin and the riders who participated enjoyed some beautiful weather as they embarked on the 20 Mile and 40 Mile (well actually about 35 mile) routes.
When everyone got back to the parking lot at Pure Austin Fitness, we had a huge array of food and drinks for everyone.  Breads, pastry's, Beanitos, Coffee, and Sweet Leaf Tea....and enough of it to feed an army.

We have a whole bunch of pictures posted on Flikr from the ride so please click this link to view them and see if we were able to capture you in a few.
