I'm baacckkk.....in Chico and, finally, back to the blog. During the nearly three weeks I was back in Minnesota, New York, Massachusetts, and Washington DC, fall descended on Chico. It is still comparatively warm here, but the trees have definitely turned, the sunny and warm days are less frequent, and rain is here. But, the bike community in Butte County is tight and there was a great turnout for the Tweed Ride this morning through Bidwell Park. Here are the photo highlights:

| We started out from downtown at City Plaza |

| Vintage bikes and clothing were the norm |

These are our new neighbors Karen and Pete. They are very active in the Chico biking community.

About 130 people turned out for this inaugural ride, many riding fun bikes. We stopped for a picnic in the park and then many people continued to the Sierra Nevada Brewery for a pint. The event ended back in downtown Chico, where the Christmas Preview occurred....kind of like the Grand Meander in St. Paul.

| This bike is carrying a grill and fuel. |

| Much better than an old folks home! |
 |
| Bomber, notice the flasks....I thought of you! |

Thanks for the pic! We're the group with the neon green fixie and flasks :)
