Murals ride in Alexandria, 9/1

[Judd]

It turns out that I had neglected to sign up which I did yesterday. Happy to help lead a group since there’s going to be a gaggle.

It was awesome seeing so many forum friends at yesterday's ride, including drevil, Fast Friendly Guy, KWL, ltierstein, MrTinDC, rachelwright, Reba, rootchopper, and streetsmarts! Special thanks to caseykane50 and Emm for agreeing to be ride leaders and attempting to make sense out of my 20 pages of research notes, and to CBGanimal, Jessica Hirschhorn, Judd, and Steve O for sweeping and keeping everyone safe.

Thanks. It was a clever idea for a ride. We all had a great time.

Kids were allowed. They didn't totally ruin it, though.
