Bonnie's Birthday Ride

Saturday, December 10th, 2005

(actual birthday, Thursday Dec 8th)

Start at Potter Park, ride east across Clark to Hummingbird Lane, ride around Twin Lakes, ride around Tatum Ridge Golf Community and Leewynn area roads, ride in communities along Honore, Bee Ridge and Proctor. 42.17 miles with victory loop in Stoneybrook.


20+ Rider turnout for initial start at Potter Park.


Larry leans, Lois smiles in the background and Garland on the right is wondering if we’re ready yet.


Larry in action, Charlie to the left, Lois behind him, Yarnall in turquoise and red and Ron in green.


We rode down Jem Road to the end and back to get in a few extra miles and for me to get photos of the strange mailboxes.


Another silly mailbox.


The group on Hummingbird Lane.


Arthur zooms ahead on his new fixed speed road bike.


A few cows at the corner of Iona and Palmer Roads.


Our fearless leaders: Charlie, Kees and Arthur at the gas station on Palmer Rd.


Arthur and his new wheels.


Yarnall rounds the bend, while some Sand Hill Cranes walk in the background.


A closer look.

I love these guys, they are my favorite, besides the alligators.


I actually lost the group when I stopped to take this photo. It was too good to pass up.


I love to zoom ahead just so I can get photos like these.
Here comes Yarnall, Kees, Mike, Jerry, and Gina and Gary who were off to the right were there too.


A better view of the group reveals, Ken, Gina, Gary and Lois.


Waiting for the light: Kees, Charlie, Yarnall and Larry.


Gary and Ron wait too.


Jerry, Gina and Ken make the next light and ride south on Honore.


Lunch at Sarasota Brewing Company: Ken, Gina and Arthur.
