My stoker and I had a great ride at Memorial Park on the Picnic Loop this afternoon after work. The rain has kept us from riding for the last few days so it was good to be back in the saddle. We saw the usual wedgie riders, skaters, and walkers. We rode a few miles alongside a Houston policeman on his mountan bike. He wasted no time in telling us what great duty it was to be a bicycle cop in Memorial Park. This is his beat two days a week.

At our break we spotted a beautiful Tour Easy Gold Rush and visited with it's owner Marco. He's been a member of our newsgroup but has never ridden with us out in Fulshear. I've encouraged him to join us one of these Saturdays. Nice to meet you, Marco!
