Detroit Riverwalk

Here's the Detroit Riverwalk fountain at the Ren Cen. It was a
beautiful day for a bikeride downtown, hot and sunny
Along the Riverwalk the kids were playing in the fountain, families
picnicing under the trees and folks skating by. It's hard to believe
I'm in downtown Detroit.

Vincent may paint a beautiful picture but there's nothing like the
real flowers. I stopped to snap this along Lakeshore over Memorial Day
weekend.

Coldwater to Dearborn Century Ride

Our group did the annual Coldwater to Dearborn Century Ride on Sunday. This year the weather was HOT, one place showed 92 degrees. Here we are on the banks of the St. Joseph River with the water overflowing it's banks. From left to right, Bruce, Jan, Carly, Mike, Mary(our sag driver), Mark and Dan. Dan and Bruce organized this ride for me to give me some hills before the Big Ride next month. I can't believe in less than a month's time I'll be on my way. The first day is 77 miles uphill over the Cascades. I thought about that every time I climbed a hill on this ride. Thanks to all my friends for making the Coldwater Century another success.
