In The (Bike) Lane, Are Ya Listenin'?

I swapped my studded snow tires onto my hybrid bike today so I could attend FAB's annual Christmas version of the Starlight Ride. Eight hardy souls and a jolly old elf made it out. Winter Wonderland at Falls Park, Phillips Avenue, Reindeer Lane and Mr. Bendo were all on the route, topped off with cocoas and mochas at Michelle's. I officially have the Christmas Spirit now.

Bike Bells Ring, Are You Listenin'?

Sometimes life is so cartoonish that a funny drawing just can't tell the tale like a couple of snapshots can . It was so when I went bike riding with Santa Claus the other night. This was the first time I've ever been behind the scenes with the jolly old elf, and I was amazed at all the people, of all ages, who sent delightful greetings to Santa Claus. They called out from windows, from across the streets, and a few even pulled over in their cars. A number of folks took pictures, too. Thanks, Santa, for a great ride!
