Ride Report: Jimmy’s Big Bike Move

Buffered Bike Lane with a bike symbol and arrow pointing forward


Reporter – Jim Eastman
How many people showed up? – 12

Brief Recap:
Bikes with trailers! Yay! Many wonderful and helpful cyclists arrived at my old house on a cloudy Saturday morning. Donuts and coffee were had to fuel us up, and about an hour was spent loading up everyone’s trailer with stuff. Then a leisure roll, without much incident (a few moments of almost losing stuff, of course, and an interesting downhill to warm up everyone’s brakes). About halfway through the ride, the sun broke and it ended up being a very lovely afternoon. We arrive at my new house and the unloading goes quickly and smoothly, followed by some celebratory pizza, beer and lounging in the sun! Good times!
