Down Townies/Earth Day Ride

I haven't been making it to the weekly Sunday Down Townies rides for a few weeks, but today I debuted the Huffeigh, which went very well. I'll have another post soon about finishing it up. I didn't even manage to get any photos of it today, so I'll just dedicate a whole other post to it.

The ride today went to Balboa Park for one of the largest Earth Day celebrations in the nation. It was pretty cool, I must say, and the very best part was the secure bike valet parking offered by the San Diego County Bicycle Coalition. Of course, I forgot to take a picture.

I was only able to hang out for about an hour and a half, then I had to run, but the rest of the group was scheduled to go to the bike swap at the velodrome later. I'm really bummed I missed that, but it's probably for the better that I just don't tempt myself. Here are some photos from the event:
