Go Biking!





On Saturday I participated in a fun bicycle race called "Talloween 4" Basically it was a checkpoint style race that could be completed in any order and they were all Halloween themed. Some of the points were a haunted house, bobbing for apples, scarecrows, witches, and zombies incuded! There were 77 people that did the race and it was amazing to see how many bicyclists there are in Tallahassee. We even had some people who came from Jacksonville and Panama City to do the race! I rode in a group of 3 people and while we didnt really ride our hardest, we hit every checkpoint, collected our candy, and came in 41st lace out of the 77! It was a complete blast to ride all over town to places such as klemans plaza all the way to Lke Ella to collect our pieces of candy. This was my first race and definately wont be my last. Anyone could have had a great time riding around town all dressed up in costumes. If you are looking for an opportunity to ride your bike this friday is Critical Mass. Basically its a huge bike ride around town that promotes bicycle awareness and safety. It starts at 5pm on Friday at Klemans plaza and will last a couple hours. I know its halloween but get dressed up and come ride with us! If you saw a bunch of crazy people on Bicycles on game day, now you know what was going on. We finished up our last couple of checkpoints as the game was getting out so traffic and crowds were pretty crazy but we finished up on landis green at the fountain in style! If you need any information about rides or anything else feel free to get a hold of me! If you look in the first picture I am riding next to the guy in the white shirt on the right side of the photo!

Go Biking!

I went to high school with the girl in the Indian costume in the 3rd picture. What a coincidence.
